Allina Health doctors, PAs hold first-ever union picket, ask for better work-life balance in new contract
Six hundred Allina doctors, physician assistants and nurse practitioners who work in primary care are asking for a new contract with more work-life balance. They gathered in the pouring rain Tuesday morning for a first-of-its-kind protest. "We are here together as a result of many years of fighting, fighting for primary care and fighting to make things better," workers chanted. While nurses have walked the picket line for years, these picketers are doctors, PA's and nurse practitioners who are admittedly higher compensated. "We all get paid really well, its not about that. It's about having better support for our patients and support in our community and that we want a fair treatment in our contract and protections for everybody," said Dr. Chris Filetti, a pediatrician with Allina Health. WCCO The workers are asking for paid sick leave, instead of having to use vacation time. They're also asking for four hours a week to finish paperwork, instead of doing it in their off time. Additionally, they're asking for more medical assistants and nurses for support. "As a provider I hear story after story about providers who have to cut back from practice because of poor work-life balance," said Filetti. Allina's leaders say they are listening despite the unsettled contract, telling WCCO in a statement: "We continue to negotiate in good faith to reach responsible agreements that maintain competitive pay and benefits for our providers while ensuring that we can sustain our caring mission during these extremely uncertain economic times. It is important to get it right. We remain committed to reaching fair agreements that ensure we can maintain access to the high-quality care people depend on."

Child hurt in car crash at Illinois after-school camp dies, raising death toll to 5
CHATHAM, Ill. (AP) — An 8-year-old injured when a car barreled through a building used for a popular after-school camp in Illinois this spring has died. Sangamon County Coroner Jim Allmon posted a news release on his office's Facebook page Tuesday announcing Bradley Lund of Springfield was pronounced dead at 5:52 a.m. Monday. The death toll from the April 28 crash in Chatham now stands at five people, including 8-year-old Ainsley Johnson; 7-year-olds Kathryn Corely and Alma Buhnerkempe, all of Chatham; and 18-year-old Rylee Britton of Springfield. According to state police, a car left a road, crossed a field and smashed into a building that the group Youth Needing Other Things Outdoors was using for the camp. The vehicle traveled through the building and exited the other side. The 44-year-old driver was not hurt. Authorities have said she may have suffered a health emergency but it remains unclear whether she's been arrested, has been taken into custody or has been charged. Asked for an update, Trooper Shafer McKune of the Illinois State Police's public information office emailed a copy of the coroner's news release to The Associated Press along with a one-sentence statement saying that Sangamon County prosecutors will provide an update when they finish a 'thorough review of the investigation.' He did not say when that review would be completed. Chatham is a community of about 15,000 people outside Springfield, the state capital.

If you've been thinking about boosting your home security before summer vacation, now is the perfect time to act. Amazon is offering the eufy Security SoloCam S340 which is a wireless solar-powered outdoor camera at its lowest price ever—just $159, down 20% from its usual $199. This all-time low price is a great excuse to lock up your house before flying off on vacation. See at Amazon Best Outdoor Solar Camera The eufy SoloCam S340 offers great features and ease of use: One of its greatest strengths is the solar panel that comes integrated so you do not need to worry about replacing batteries or stringing up wires. The camera charges itself once installed as it harnesses sunlight so you can really set and forget. This is also useful during the summer when you're likely to be away for more extended periods: Your camera will keep working, keeping your property under surveillance without any further effort from you. Quality is yet another area where the SoloCam S340 delivers. The camera shoots at ultra-crisp 3K resolution so that you can see every detail inside and outside your home, both during the day and at night. Regardless of whether you must check on who is at the front door, guard the backyard, or see your driveway, the 360° pan and tilt feature of the camera assures there is no blind spot. You can adjust the camera from your phone and pivot its point in any direction, allowing it to be easy to oversee each region of your home remotely. The 8× zoom enables you to get a close-up glimpse of anything unusual, and two-camera functionality enables you to see wide angles and close-up at the same time. The one feature that makes this camera stand out from the rest is its smart AI tracking: The SoloCam S340 uses artificial intelligence to automatically track people or cars moving across your lawn. That is, you don't get static video, you get smart monitoring that focuses on what matters most and alerts you if anything unusual happens. Even when using AI tracking or dual-view mode, you still get crisp 2K video quality which is much more than adequate to capture faces and license plates with clearness. Installation is fast and simple, thanks to the camera's compact and wire-free design: It only takes a few minutes to install without tools or technical knowledge. Flexible mounting points mean you can position it wherever you like—on a wall, under an eave, or on a fence post. And with solar power, you don't have to search for an outlet or deal with unsightly wiring. For a mere $159 on Amazon, it's a bargain you won't regret. See offer
