Healthcare workers across the Providence Swedish system voted YES to ratify our strongest contract ever. 
Through bargaining, we never let go of our values of great patient care, racial justice, and Providence Swedish being a market leader. Because we stood in solidarity with one another, we raised healthcare standards for all while Medicaid/care cuts are impacting caregivers and our patients everywhere.
