“We are thrilled to join our union coworkers at Kindred Westminster and Baldwin Park,” Kindred San Gabriel RN Nieva Castigador added in the release. “In the coming weeks we will be electing our bargaining team and are looking forward to bargaining our first contract to improve working conditions for our patients and ourselves.”

Kindred Hospital San Gabriel Valley did not immediately return a call from Becker’s Hospital Review seeking comment.
