It depends, legacy isn’t union so if all those nurses join the union their power at the bargaining table goes up. The concern is they will not know where they will be working or if they will be detailed to another hospital

Right. On the one hand, your bargaining power goes up because you have greater numbers, and on the other, your bargaining power goes down because your members lost an alternative employer.

I work in the Healthcare Admin field and there is rumblings the state of Oregon/OHA may block the closure of the hospital (at least the ER component). It would double travel times to an ER from west and south Eugene if that ER closed.
