The moment we've been working toward is almost here ✊ In less than two weeks, clinicians at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center will cast their votes for union representation and decide whether to come together with a collective voice for the patient care standards and working conditions that cancer patients depend on. Patients in Seattle deserve the highest quality care, and the providers who care for them deserve a workplace that supports them. It's time to make history for our patients and our profession. Review the voting dates, times, and locations to make your voting plan today 🗳️
More than 240 physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants at Banner Health in Arizona have filed to unionize 📣 This moment didn't come out of nowhere. In May, Dr. Lea was disciplined after flagging a scheduling error that could have delayed care for hundreds of patients. She did exactly what a physician is supposed to do: speak up for their patients. Banner's response? Retaliation. Now, her colleagues are standing together to say 'enough is enough.' Clinicians should be able to raise patient safety concerns without fear of retaliation. Advocating for patients should be welcomed and encouraged, not punished. It's time for the clinicians who care for patients to have a voice in decisions that affect their patients, their profession, and the future of care across the state ✊ #unionstrong #patientcare #patientsfirst #healthcare
Today, we honor the fathers and father figures who care for their families with the same dedication they bring to their patients and communities every day. Your commitment makes a difference not only at home, but in the lives of the patients and their loved ones who count on your care 💙 #fathersday
Today, we honor the courage and resilience of the freedom fighters who changed the course of history. We reflect on the ongoing pursuit of justice and the work still needed to build a more equitable world. And we celebrate the achievements and excellence that Black Americans have contributed to this nation. Juneteenth marks a pivotal moment in our nation's history and serves as a powerful reminder that the work to build a more equitable future for all is never finished. ✊ #juneteenth #freedom
Something powerful is happening in Washington state 📣 250 nurse practitioners and physician assistants at Fred Hutch, University of Washington, and Seattle Children's have filed to unionize. Every day, these clinicians help guide cancer patients through some of the most difficult moments of their lives. Now, they're coming together to ensure that they have a voice in the decisions that shape patient care. From staffing and workloads to transparency, workplace equity, and the future of cancer care. We’ve said it before and we'll keep saying it until every healthcare system hears us: those closest to patient care deserve a seat at the table ✊ #1u #union #patientcare #healthcare
Every patient who walks through our doors deserves to be seen—fully, wholly, exactly as they are. LGBTQIA+ patients face higher rates of delayed care, misdiagnosis, and avoidance of medical settings often because they've learned that healthcare spaces aren't always safe spaces. This Pride Month, we commit to being the exception. Affirming care saves lives. 🏳️🌈 #pride
We are deeply disappointed and concerned over the decision to end UB's oral surgery residency. This is a setback not only for academic training, but for public health in Western New York. For patients in the region who need timely access to highly specialized care, this will mean fewer local options, longer wait times, and in many cases, the burden of traveling farther to receive treatment. The disruption to an already strained system will be felt most by those with complex and urgent health needs. Investing in healthcare education and medical training is an investment in community health. If these programs like this are discontinued, patients ultimately face reduced access, diminished capacity across the system, and a weakened pipeline of future providers who might have chosen to stay and serve the area.
The University at Buffalo is closing its oral and maxillofacial surgery residency program at the end of this academic year, an abrupt decision that startled those in the industry across the country. buffalonews.com/news/local/bus…
The results are in and we're thrilled to announce that our pediatricians at the Packard Children's Health Alliance, affiliated with Stanford Medicine Children's Health have WON their union election 🎉✊ Every day, these physicians care for our youngest patients and their families. Today, they came together to advocate for themselves, their profession, and the future of pediatric care. Their victory will help strengthen the care and support that families rely on every day 💙 #1u #unionstrong #peds #healthcare #solidarity
Today, we take a moment and pause to remember the ones who never made it home. 🇺🇸 #MemorialDay
When the largest healthcare system in Arizona punishes a physician for doing her job, it doesn't just affect the physician. It affects their patients, their coworkers, and everyone at the organization. It sends a message that if you dare speak up, there will be consequences. That's not healthcare. That's intimidation.

We're proud to endorse Janeese Lewis George for DC Mayor! Her people-first platform reflects the type of leadership our communities deserve. Leadership that puts working families first ✊ DC deserves a mayor who will fight for its residents and build a city that is safer, more affordable, and more equitable for all. Learn more about her platform 🔗 janeesefordc.com #peopleoverpolitics #dc #mayor
For 15 years, Dr. Syerra Lea has cared for patients at Banner Health throughout Phoenix in Arizona. After pointing out a scheduling mistake that could have turned away hundreds of patients and delayed their care by months, Banner responded by placing her on probation and monitoring her communications. What's the next mistake that'll happen because providers are too afraid to speak up? Patients deserve a healthcare system where providers can speak up and raise concerns without the fear of retaliation. Silencing frontline providers puts patient care at risk, plain and simple 📣 Dr. Lea isn't staying silent. She's fighting back and we're proud to represent her in a ULP charge to ensure no other provider has to choose between doing the right thing and keeping their job. ✊ #1u #union #workersrights #healthcare #doctors
In the spirit of May Day and standing with workers, we are proud to endorse Xavier Becerra for Governor of California 📣 At a time when our healthcare system is at risk and patients face growing barriers to accessing care, we need leaders who understand what's at stake. The future of healthcare in California is on the ballot, and healthcare workers deserve a governor who understand our challenges and will fight alongside us. From defending access to care to standing up for Californians, Becerra has shown he's ready to lead. #1u #endorsement
This May Day, we stand together with workers everywhere as the collective force shaping the future of our professions. Every gain we've won, every right we've earned, every protection we've secured has been driven by solidarity. Together, we don't just protect our profession - we define what it becomes next. #MayDay #UnionStrong #HealthcareWorkers #Solidarity #1u
We stand united with our union siblings at the University of California represented by AFSCME 3299 in their fight for a #faircontractnow 🪧 Something is inherently broken when the people keeping the UC system running can't afford housing while the university reports $5.5 billion in profit and tens of billions in unrestricted cash reserves. Every worker deserves dignity, fairness, and a contract that reflects their true worth. The fight for working people is everyone's fight. ✊ #1u #solidarityforever #strike #workersrights #uc
Patients seeking treatment for substance use disorder deserve care that is thoughtful and thorough, not rushed. That’s why 70 physicians and nurse practitioners at Boulder Care are coming together to unionize. Because patients deserve the proper time, care, and attention by clinicians who are not pushed beyond their limits. Amid the company’s rapid growth, this is about standing up for patients and protecting the care they depend on ✊ #1u #unionize #healthcare #addictionmedicine #solidarity
It was a pleasure dining with Assemblymember Jessica Caloza ✊ At today’s luncheon, our members came together to celebrate the progress we’ve made on AB 1637—legislation that protects our patients by ensuring medical notes can’t be altered. Safeguarding clinical judgment is fundamental to patient safety. Moments like this are about more than one bill, they’re about frontline providers shaping the future of healthcare by advancing meaningful legislation. #1u #solidarity #healthcare #legislation #healthcarejustice
Thank you to everyone who came out to demand accountability from Family Health Centers of San Diego for retaliating against providers who speak up for patients. Solidarity w/ Councilmembers Chavez & Inzunza, San Diego Labor Council, UDW, SEIU UHW, and every patient who walks through FHCSD's doors. ✊
We are devastated by the news at Unity Health Care. There are no words to make sense of this kind of loss. During this time, let's continue to show up for one another. Check in on your colleagues, reach out if you need support, and take the time you need to process. We’re keeping the affected family and the entire community in our thoughts 💙
