“My coworkers and I are tired and understaffed, but we are committed to doing what it takes to hold dialysis corporations accountable. We demand staffing and fair pay, and together we have the power to change this industry for future generations.” Ruby Culla, PCT, Fresenius Elk Grove
We haven’t stopped speaking out about the crisis in dialysis and Fresenius executives are feeling the pressure at the bargaining table and at our clinics across California.
Our work is paying off: in our last session, Fresenius negotiators began to recognize our staffing concerns by agreeing to important safety and health protections.
We’re also raising the minimum wage for all dialysis workers in California with the new healthcare minimum wage—but we aren’t done yet.
We are making real progress in negotiations to #FixDialysis, but we must keep the pressure on to win our first contract.

- Safety & Health
- Seniority
- Job Vacancy Postings

We’re fighting to change the dialysis industry. Join an upcoming info meeting to learn more.
