    SANTA ROSA - Along with community supporters and faith leaders, caregivers at Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital (SRMH) will hold a candlelight vigil tonight to urge management to bargain in good faith toward a fair contract that safeguards patient care.

    Over 650 members of the National Union of Healthcare Workers (NUHW) have been bargaining since May over job security, fair wages and safe staffing levels at the hospital.  Even though the hospital reported over $26 million in profits in the last fiscal year and is a regional Level II trauma center, wages at Memorial are among the lowest for major hospitals in the county.

    NUHW members at SRMH include Licensed Vocational Nurses, Dietary workers, Nursing Assistants, Phlebotomists, Radiology Technologists, Respiratory Care Practitioners, Housekeepers and other job classifications.
