Union Area Gatherings

Eloise Ramos, an IP from Moses Lake My name is Eloise Ramos and I am an IP from Moses Lake. I am looking forward to our union’s area gatherings this year.

I look forward to connecting with my sisters and brothers— whether they work in Nursing Homes or as home care workers —who take pride in their work caring for home care clients or nursing home residents, but who often struggle to make ends meet. Working together, we have fought and won increased wages, vacation time, health insurance and most importantly respect. The best is yet to come!!

Meet Other Caregivers in Your Area ** Clients and Family Members Welcome ** Snacks and Beverages Provided

Our Union Area Gatherings will take place across the state in May.
