“Nurses have been on the frontlines of this pandemic every single day, putting themselves at risk to keep our loved ones safe,” said Assemblyman Anglo Santabarbara. “To hear that their calls for a safe working environment are going unheard is unimaginable.” “Albany Medical Center must return to the negotiation table with fair and tangible safety protocols that demonstrate respect for the sacrifices nurses have given day in and day out.” Santabarbara added, “I am proud to stand in solidarity with all of our nurses and will keep fighting to ensure they have access to proper training, equipment, and safe staffing levels.”
