Kaiser healthcare worker strike ends as scheduled, bargaining continues
Roughly 4,000 Kaiser Permanente healthcare workers across Oregon and Southwest Washington ended their five-day strike as scheduled Sunday morning.
While @ofnhp.bsky.social members at Kaiser have continuously asked for real solutions to the staffing crisis, Kaiserβs response has been to delay and disregard. This is why they're continuing the fight for the care their patients deserve. #OneVoiceOneFightOneFuture www.kptv.com/2025/10/19/k...

Kaiser says itβs proud to serve 12.5 million members, but instead of investing in local nurses, it wants the right to assign travel RNs at will.
These temporary nurses cost more while permanent staff face short staffing.

Kaiser says nurses will get big raises by the end of the contract. But weβre behind now.
That pay gap hurts patients & the quality of care.

Kaiser keeps saying they need to βkeep care affordable.β But hereβs the truth.
Kaiser CAN afford to keep care affordable for patients AND reach a fair agreement with their healthcare workers.
