Subject: Response to Board
The super-majority of the employed physicians of the medical staff of RMCHCS who are seeking to unionize appreciate the efforts of our hospital’s Board of Directors to serve our community. We were blindsided and saddened to receive a statement from the Chair of the Board opposing our unionization and further, stating that it would not be in the best interests of patients, without even meeting with us first. We respect Mr. McKernan and his accomplishments, which were achieved with the help of unionized resident doctors, nurses, technicians, and other staff, during his long tenure leading UNM [University of New Mexico] Hospitals and we expected better.
