Nurses demand $40 monthly pay increase at Frick Memorial
Thirty four general duty nurses threaten mass resignation as they push for a salary rise from 140 to 180 dollars monthly. The move stems from Frick Memorial Hospital where the nurses threaten to resign September 25 unless a board meeting on Wednesday approves the raise. Board President Gilbert Clark doubts the hospital budget can absorb the increase. Spokeswoman Marion Dominick said the minimum salary should rise to 180 dollars.
