About 700 nurses and health care professionals employed by Ventura County will receive healthy pay raises and cost-of-living adjustments to their pensions in a contract unanimously approved by the Ventura County Board of Supervisors Tuesday. The five-year pact with the California Nurses Association/National Nurses United includes a 5.5% annual raise as of April 30 paired with general salary pay hikes in coming years as well as additional market-based increases aimed at making wages competitive with other health systems.
