Latest update
Get Involved and Support contract negotiations!
Posted Oct 10, 2025
Our union has 2 great opportunities for our nurses to get involved and support our upcoming contract negotiations. Check them out below!
Fall Negotiations Kick off!
Thursday October 23
Big Barn Brewing
16004 Applewood Lane, Mead, WA
4-8 pm
Our WSNA officers invite you and your families to come hang out with your fellow nurses and families as we unite around the upcoming contract negotiations.
- Free food truck from Madfire Kitchen and Catering.
- Nonalcoholic drinks provided. Cider and beer on your own.
- Enjoy live music with a DJ and games!
- Wear your WSNA blue T shirt or pick up your FREE WSNA shirt at Big Barn!
Become a Local Unit Steward (formerly Unit Liaisons/Reps)!
Local unit Stewards help keep nurses on their unit informed. They function as a liaison between your Local unit officers and the nurses on your unit, so everyone stays in the loop regardless of their shift, schedule, or FTE. If you read your emails and texts, attend bargaining as an observer, provide feedback to WSNA and your bargaining team, and know where our WSNA Local unit page is, you are already doing the work and would make a great local unit Steward.
Sign up for a 1-hour virtual training to learn more about how you can help support your local unit. After completing this training you’ll receive a WSNA Leader pin. Dates in October and November!
Some topics you’ll learn more about:
- The role of a Steward
- Our rights at work
- Just cause discipline
- Meeting representation
- Actions during contract campaigns
Sign up today for a training session!

Document unsafe conditions
If you find yourself in a situation that you believe creates unsafe conditions for patients or for you, you should complete an RN Staffing Analysis Form as soon as possible. This will notify your charge nurse and manager of the situation as well as the Staffing Committee.

Representation rights
As a union member, you have the right to have a representative present in any meetings with management that could potentially lead to disciplinary action against you.
If called into a meeting with management, read the following to management when the meeting begins:
If this discussion could in any way lead to my being disciplined or terminated, I respectfully request that my union representative be present at this meeting. Without representation present, I choose not to participate in this discussion.
Find out more about this crucial right and how to exercise it to ensure your fair treatment and protection.
