An assembly of Garrahan residents yesterday, with the participation of workers from different sectors of the hospital, summoned a press conference on Thursday at 5:00 p.m. in Plaza de Mayo to spread their position. In the letter they read they raised: “We are attributed to us freedom of choice before two options of which none solves the basic salary problem, and that both imply the loss of many labor rights acquired”.
In it, they denounce that “this measure represents a deep setback in training and working conditions for thousands of professionals throughout our country. The residence aims to train and specialize racing graduates such as medicine, nursing, biochemistry, among others, in the framework of supervised care and academic work.”
