"While St. Barnabas residents are feeling the squeeze, the top 5 executives at St. Barnabas received a 35% salary increase between 2002 and 2007." "It just doesn't make sense."

"Last week, 1199 delegates signed and delivered a letter to St. Barnabas CEO Scott Cooper asking him to stop diverting health care resources on anti-union attorneys and allow residents to vote in a union election."

The union election is scheduled for June 18, 2009.

It has been reported that St. Barnabas is in negotiations to buy Westchester Square Medical Center. Can SBH afford to direct money elsewhere when there are so many problems at home?
