Richard Kuhwarth, hospital administrator, requested the increase in the belief that higher wages would attract morenurses to the hospital. He said it is difficult to recruit nurses inthis area, and six positions are "essentially” unfilled. Part time personnel has taken up some of the slack he said, Kuhwarth claimed the hospital could absorb the proposed increase without raising rates or asking money from the county. He said an average daily patient load of 56 to 61, as compared to rates based on an anticipated 51 patients per day, could make this possible. The hospital has had an operating profit of slightly more than $13,000 in the past six months, according to the administrator. Supervisor Dean Lawrence questioned if the lack of nurses is due to the pay ‘scale or because of an actual shortage of registered nurses, Kuhwarth believed both to be contributing factors. Chairman. William Thomas agreed that existing salaries should be improved to meet ‘those paid at other hospitals in this area; However, he did not believe the. county could compete in salaries with San Francisco hospitals. He hoped to "draw" nurses from Sacramento. "The quickest way to empty a hospital is to have it understaffed, I don't feel the 3 per cent is out of line," was the thinking of Supervisor Lou Hartman. However, he warned it would be unwise to compete through. higher .wages to attract trained personnel away from other hospitals here, "Recruiting single ‘women here is a problem," said Thomas. He claimed women generally come here with their husbands, and higher salaries would not attract unmarried women, He warned against starting a wagewar between hospitals. Thomas hopes to establish "a comparable wage. level rather — than setting the pace." Mrs, Lawrence suggested the matter be tabled for the present, and Hartman agreed that another week's study "wouldn't do any harm."
