Today is day 60 of our open-ended strike against @KPThrive. What will prompt an $8.1 billion in profit HMO to invest in providing better #mentalhealth care to patients? 10+ years of regulatory action and fines and still no change. https://t.co/LkoS8sdWeU

@kpthrive continues to DENY #Mentalhealth patients access to care. #nuhw knows #MentalHealthMatters Watch this news story on the decade long disaster that is #kaiserpermanente Psychiatry

Thank you @SpeakerPelosi for supporting mental health therapists from @KPThrive in their 8-week strike to make Kaiser improve access to #Mentalhealth care. No one should have to wait months for therapy sessions. #WorldMentalHealthDay

[Sal Rosselli @sal_rosselli]

This #WorldMentalHealthDay, we demand @KPThrive stop breaking #California law by delaying/denying members timely access to #mentalhealth care. Now 2 months into our open-ended strike, Kaiser STILL refuses to fix its broken mental health system: https://t.co/2ZExlzRnDb

[National Union of Healthcare Workers @NUHW]

Thousands of Californians have shared their experiences of delayed & denied #mentalhealth care at @KPThrive. Today, on the strike line in Santa Clara, several of these patient stories are on display. To read these stories, or share your own, visit: https://t.co/JUnfAb2fza

[Sal Rosselli @sal_rosselli]

There has been no shortage of opportunity for @KPthrive to collaborate with @NUHW & @CADMHC to fix its dangerously broken #mentalhealth system. We're on open-ended strike in #California & #Hawaii to hold them accountable. More:https://t.co/2ZExlzAkBb

Thanks to the @SFBos for standing in solidarity with us in speaking truth to power about the long-broken @kpthrive #mentalhealth system. Heading into week 9 of our open-ended strike demanding Kaiser stop breaking the law and improve patient care.

[Sal Rosselli @sal_rosselli]

The resolve of @NUHW members in their fight to make @KPthrive fix its broken #mentalhealth system proves their commitment to quality, timely patient care for the communities they serve. For #Kaiser to ignore that & continue to break the law is outrageous. https://t.co/DhedW8zz8y

"Therapists like me are giving up on @KPThrive for the same reason so many of our patients do — Kaiser doesn’t provide access to #mentalhealth care at a frequency that meets any clinical standard of care." More via @sfexaminer

@kpthrive do better ‼️ Day 51, you sure like to make your @NUHW therapists and #mentalhealth patients WAIT‼️

[Sal Rosselli @sal_rosselli]

Licensed #mentalhealth caregivers at @KPThrive want patients to heal. Kaiser's system only allows therapists to see patients every 6-8-10 weeks. That doesn't promote healing. Support therapists in #California & #Hawaii as they advocate for their patients: https://t.co/2ZExlzRnDb

Thank you for your advocacy & leadership. And for offering patients/community an opportunity to elevate their voices in the @sfbos meeting. @KPthrive has had 12 years to avoid this crisis & neglected to do so. It's beyond time for accountability.

[National Union of Healthcare Workers @NUHW]

“It's time for the state government to step up and intervene w/@kpthrive,” said @HillaryRonen. “This is so tremendously serious and our governor needs to intervene, end this strike and get this monster corporation to provide services that are being paid for.” #kaiserstrike
