Congratulations to Stephanie Emerson, a respiratory therapist at Saint Vincent Hospital. Stephanie has been given an Allied Health Angel Wings Award in recognition for her compassionate care.
Worcester County Sheriff Lew Evangelidis paid a visit the the Worcester State University Vaccine Clinic along with the Central Massachusetts Agency on Aging. The organizations donated "File of Life" cards for senior citizens to take when they visit the clinic.
We took the accusations that the hospital was staffing outside its established guidelines seriously. We performed a detailed evaluation of staffing on each med-surg unit for every month over the last two years.
A total of 115 Saint Vincent Hospital nurses – almost 15 percent of the nursing staff -- chose to come to work rather than strike. They joined replacement registered nurses to continue to care for their patients at the hospital.

"At Saint Vincent I never heard a complaint from anyone about safety or staffing levels. I worked in hospitals in New Hampshire and Boston. The quality of care at St. Vincent is second to none."

As we care for our community and battle the pandemic, we are disappointed that the Massachusetts Nurses Association has walked away from the negotiating table and plans to hold a strike beginning March 8.

The Massachusetts Nurses Association (MNA), the labor union that represents our nurses, has made many statements attacking Saint Vincent Hospital. CEO Carolyn Jackson sets the record straight.
