We’re moving forward as NUHW
Not back into contract bargaining alone under UNAC
NUHW In Action
As NUHW, we’ve won strong contracts, stood up for each other, and advanced our professions.
A Supportive Union
“What I love about NUHW is that I know that no matter what time I call, I always get support.”
SOCORRO MANZANILLA
Health Educator (Ret.)
Kaiser Center for Health Living
A Democratic Union
“We helped form NUHW more than a decade ago to make sure we would have a voice in our union and in our workplaces.”:
TURUSEW GEDEBU WILSON
Registered Dietitian
Kaiser Riverside
A Professionals Union
“In our Regional Professional Practice Committee this year, we reached an agreement with Kaiser on guidelines for when patients need more time so we’re not rushing them through appointments.”
MATT JOHNSON
Audiologist
Kaiser Fontana
We’re voting to move forward with NUHW — not back into bargaining under UNAC.
Stacy Eldridge
“NUHW supports licensure for Registered dietitians because we are a member-led union. UNAC doesn’t represent any dietitians and as a nurses union it has never supported licensure for our profession.”
Angelica Day
“In NUHW there’s always a voice on the other end of the phone. We’re always supported, and we always get a say in what we do. I don’t want to be swallowed into a big nurses’ union like UNAC, and I don’t want to lose the contract we just signed and negotiate a new one.”
Karen Garcia Herrera
“NUHW has always supported me and my coworkers; that’s why I will always support NUHW.”
Silvia Delgado
“As NUHW, we have fundamentally changed how Kaiser understands the value of our work and the necessity of our professions.”
Roohe Ahmed
“I wouldn’t have survived early pandemic life without NUHW. I don’t want to lose the good representation I get from my NUHW stewards or the benefits of the contract that we just signed. We’re making good progress as NUHW. There’s no reason to give that up and go right back into bargaining.”
The Real UNAC
UNAC is a nurses’ union that doesn’t prioritize our interests.
UNAC Failed Us
“Under UNAC, we didn’t have a say in anything. We paid our dues and had to take what was given to us.”
CHRISTOPHER WARREN
Physical Therapist
Fountain Valley Regional Hospital
UNAC Let Us Down
“UNAC was not responsive to us. We were represented by UNAC for over two decades, they only let people down.”
MAKENNA MUSSON
Registered Nurse, Fountain Valley Regional Hospital
