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

Dear Colleagues,

February 11 marked the first of three days of bargaining with CRONA scheduled for this week and our ninth day of negotiations overall. Highlights include:

  • Our team started the day by passing five counterproposals on Educational Assistance, PTO, Relief Nurse Attendance, On-Call Sleep Rooms and Staffing.
  • The CRONA team provided responses on Weekend Staffing and Rotator Schedules.
  • In the afternoon our team came back with counterproposals on both Rotator Schedules and Weekend Staffing.
  • A number of our passes include added protections and improvements for nurses.
  • We look forward to making continued progress this week during our session today, February 12, and tomorrow, February13.
  • As always, you can find the latest negotiations updates on our website.


Thank you for your dedication and please stay tuned!
