Thank you Assemblymember Wicks for your leadership to make sure that communities are informed about hospital closures or reduction in services. We cannot let Berkeley and other cities lose essential health care during a pandemic. #SaveAltaBates

Excited to share that my bill requiring hospitals to give more advance notice of closures or downgrading of services passed the Assembly! In the midst of this #COVID19 pandemic, communities need more time to deal w/the loss of vital health services. #AB2037 gives them that time.

El Cerrito mayor and registered #nurse @RochelleOkimoto knows that we must #SaveAltaBates or there will be no Women and Infants services between Vallejo and Oakland!

"If you're having a heart attack, you only have a certain amount of time to get to the hospital. If you're having a stroke, time is of the essence." — Michael Hill, RN We must #SaveAltaBates! Our community depends on it! https://t.co/MQO6wM2nGH

Urgent care cannot replace Alta Bates. A standalone ED cannot replace Alta Bates. Communities need a full-service, acute care hospital. #Nurses know: we must #SaveAltaBates! https://t.co/w9fOEOb4WH

This weekend #nurses took to the streets of Berkeley to #SaveAltaBates hospital. Our message --> Sutter Health must stop holding East Bay communities’ health care hostage by refusing to retrofit Alta Bates Hospital, and threatening to shut it down!

We have repeatedly ask for what the cost of retrofitting the hospital is and have asked Sutter for their plan. There has been no response. When people's lives are at risk, Sutter is keeping us in the dark. #SaveAltaBates

In 1999, when Sutter merged with Alta Bates, Sutter made a commitment to the community that the hospital will remain open. Why are they backtracking on their promise to us? #SaveAltaBates

An estimated 4,000 UC Berkeley students visit Alta Bates each year, with multiple ambulance transfers from the Tang Health Center to the hospital daily. A lack of a hospital near campus will adversely impact students. #SaveAltaBates

This morning I joined @JesseArreguin, @NancySkinnerCA, @CalNurses & leaders of #AD15 to share results of @UCBerkeley report re: the potential closure of Alta Bates. It confirms what we already know: the loss of Alta Bates would bring untenable costs to East Bay. #SaveAltaBates

"The study confirms our deepest fears about the impact of a hospital closure on the health and safety of our community. It is irresponsible to close a hospital when the population is growing." -#Berkeley Mayor @JesseArreguin @SutterHealth must #SaveAltaBates or sell it!

Time matters when you're rushing to the ER. Fight to #SaveAltaBates is life or death matter for East Bay. Thanks @JesseArreguin @BuffyWicks @loridroste @RashiKesarwani @KateHarrisonD4 @RochelleOkimoto Peggy McQuaid. @SutterHealth must do better!
