CNA Asks for Ebola Training, Protections in Contract Negotiations With Kaiser Permanente
In ongoing contract negotiations with Kaiser Permanente, the California Nurses Association now is asking for interactive training and better protective gear for nurses who could treat patients who have Ebola. CNA says Kaiser should offer nurses supplemental insurance that would give payouts in the case that a nurse contracts Ebola or another infectious disease and becomes ill or dies.
