Mission Local: Nurses, mental health workers storm Health Commission meeting, shut it down


You can say this about the nurses staffing the imperiled Adult Rehabilitation Facility on the campus of San Francisco General Hospital: They’re punctual.


At the crack of 4 p.m., the starting time for today’s Health Commission meeting, chants of “Save the ARF” rang out in the halls of the Department of Public Health headquarters at 101 Grove Street.

Loudly.
