Updates on CRONA Negotiations from Stanford Health Care and Lucile Packard Children's Hospital Stanford.

Dear Colleagues,

As we look ahead to contract negotiations scheduled to begin on January 14th, we want to share our commitment to you throughout the upcoming negotiations process.

We are committed to working together with CRONA to achieve our goal of delivering safe, high-quality patient care while recognizing the critical role our nurses play in our health care system and reinforcing our commitment to supporting you and the nursing profession.

Negotiations can be difficult and there may be differences of opinion during bargaining. That said, we are dedicated to working toward solutions that promote our productive, constructive partnership. We’re confident that’s possible because we share the same goal – contracts that promote superior patient care, support your work, your professional aspirations and your life away from work.

We currently have sessions scheduled throughout January, February and March, and we look forward to keeping you updated along the way. We also encourage you to visit this website, your central source for the latest updates and information.

We are grateful to be a part of this extraordinary nursing team, and we look forward to reaching an agreement as soon as possible so you can benefit from the improvements a new contract provides.
