‘What do we want? Staffing!’: UCSF nurses stage rally against rising workplace violence

Nurses at the University of California, San Francisco Medical Center at Mission Bay have staged a rally in front of the medical center on Fourth Street to air frustrations over what they say is understaffing and resulting consequences such as workplace violence.  

In a press release, the National Nurses United raised concerns over “alarming increases” of violent incidents occurring at every UCSF medical center due to a hiring freeze put in place by UCSF in May of this year that ended Aug. 31.
