Montefiore Health System, a profitable NYC hospital, insists there is “no money in the budget” for desperately needed nursing and support staff to address long wait times, overcrowding and a patient safety crisis, especially in the Emergency Departments and Pediatric/Neonatal Intensive Care Units. So Monte nurses are throwing a “Bake Sale for Patient Care” on December 5 from 11:30 - 2:30 PM to raise money and awareness — we hope you can drop by and show your support!
Bake Sales will be held at the following Montefiore locations:
- Moses: E. Gunhill Rd. at Rochambeau Ave., 11:30 AM – 2:30 PM
- Weiler: Sacket Ave. at Eastchester Rd., 11:30 AM – 2:30 PM
- Home Care: Corner of E. Fordham Rd. and 3rd Ave., 7:00 - 8:30 AM
- Westchester Square: Corner of St. Raymonds and St. Peters Aves., 12:00 - 1:00 PM
Take Action for Patient Care!
Join us in requesting that Montefiore meet with community and NYSNA leaders in order to explore alternative allocations of resources such that safe and superior care is ensured by signing the electronic petition at: http://bit.ly/montebakesale
