Aliya Healthcare took over Ryze West in June. Nurses said since then, they have had ongoing issues getting paid. They told the news outlet that they were not paid the last pay period and, in the most recent one, the company paid them then took the money back, citing a clerical error. The nurses also said the company promised to pay them July 5, but they had not yet received any money.
The nurses are refusing to work until the issue is resolved.
