Check out our union’s recent activity below!

Our Holy Family nurses volunteered to host the medical tent for this Spokane based organization’s 5k walk to support military veterans and their families. Our union also pre-paid the registration for a dozen of our nurses to walk this event. Sean Moser is a veteran and a Holy Family ER nurse serving our community.

Our local nurse leaders Emily Troyer, Martha Goodall, and Tristan Twohig pictured with our WSNA Nurse Rep at our member convention. Our union hosts conventions each year, eligible for CEUs and with sponsorships of cost. Stay tuned for our next convention.

We hiked Bowl & Pitcher at Riverside State Park for one of our nurse’s week celebrations. Join us for our next hike on June 11 at 9:30am. Sign up with our link so we know who is coming and bring a friend!

During Nurses Week, our union leaders came around with our snack wagon to load up our hardworking nurses. Picture above are Mariah, Therese, and Sydney from infusion and Kendall from PCU with her entire box of snacks on night shift.

We will reschedule this for a sunny day in June- stay tuned!
