“We’re being told they did everything they could, that the sheriff saved the day, when the way we see it is like we showed up for ourselves. We kept our other patients and colleagues safe.” In the wake of the loss of our social worker colleague & union sibling, we demand real change. #UCSF #SFGH #SF
“Workers have raised the same issues for years—and we’re done waiting.” After an UPTE member was killed at UCSF Ward 86, we demand a written safety plan, staffing/caseload minimums, protected time off, trauma support, and transparency: upte.org/demands

“If we have a suicidal patient that requires one-to-one staffing, our management says that this decreases productivity—and then denies the request for more staff.” After an UPTE member was killed at UCSF’s Ward 86, we demand a safety plan now. Read our demands here: upte.org/demands

*This Hits close to home: I was born at #SFGH (now #ZuckerbergHospital). Also I know many East Palo Alto families (the predominantly Black+ workingclass Peninsula town now conquered by #BigTech) who were thrilled when #CZI set up a culturally-competent school there—only to be defunded in early 2025
I am deeply honored to be receiving the Inaugural #SFGH Catalyst Award today. I had to record my remarks since my POD is LATE and my movers are here waiting to finish packing it. #Sigh #TemporaryInconveniences #HappierIsPossible
PS: What’s next? Will Zuck and CZI withdraw the funding they’ve provided in recent years to SF General Hospital —I mean, “Chan-Zuckerberg?” He + his wife basically bought an Institutional name change of #SFGH several years ago, and it is their most notable ReputationWashing effort in San Francisco😡
