ALAMEDA HEALTH SYSTEM

Nurses in California are fighting unit closures, staffing cuts, and potential sales of public hospitals to private operators, impacting patient care for vulnerable populations. Examples include San Bernardino County's Arrowhead Regional Medical Center, Ventura County's Santa Paula Hospital, Los Angeles County's Antelope Valley Medical Center, and Alameda County's Alameda Hospital, where nurses are advocating for safe staffing and public oversight.
