Action to Support Helen Porter Caregivers
PFNHP is gathering signatures to support the caregivers of Helen Porter Rehabilitation Center in their fight to win safe and appropriate staffing levels.

Helen Porter caregivers are committed to providing the best possible care to the most vulnerable in Addison county. For two and half years they have attempted to work with management to increase staffing in order to meet the specific needs of their residents safely. At the start of May 2026, UVMH mandated a reduction in patient facing staff. Sign the petition supporting Helen Porter caregivers working to safely provide excellent care, attract and retain skilled workers, and treat their residents with dignity and respect.

Support Staff United (SSU) President Jacob Berkowitz joined around 100 others to speak at SEIU-CIR's Unity Break Rally, for a fair contract this Thursday! Others from SSU and colleagues from United Academics also came out to support.

400 early-career doctors in training have been in negotiations for their second contract since January. UVMMC’s failure to agree to a fair contract leaves them in a state of chronic financial stress as they work 80+ hours a week and often on 24-hour shifts.

UVMMC residents are already underpaid relative to other residency programs in New England. In order to attract the best medical students to be trained in Vermont and retain them as doctors after residency, UVMMC must offer competitive salaries. This is not only a solution to alleviate the doctor shortage in Vermont, it will also allow residents to improve their quality of life so that they can continue to provide patients the high-quality care they deserve. 

To provide the best care to all Vermonters, it is crucial the state’s largest hospital invests in the people providing that care.
