On behalf of both Butler Hospital and the members of SEIU 1199NE, we are proud to announce that as of Sunday, members have begun returning to work, and the process is continuing each day as more caregivers come back to their patients. This is an important step toward the full restoration of all services that thousands of patients rely on at Butler Hospital each year. Butler Hospital is a beacon of hope for individuals and families who need behavioral health and substance use disorder treatment. We look forward to working together to strengthen our hospital’s ability to meet the needs of its patients, employees, and the entire community while advancing the vital mission of Butler Hospital.
