Latest update

Bargaining Update: Session 10  (February 17, 2026)

2026 02 17 Team photo Session 10

PeaceHealth Southwest nurses, our current contract expires in nine days! We were back at the bargaining table Tuesday, February 17, to keep fighting for a deal that will make you proud over the next three years. Though  we left feeling optimistic over how close we are to reaching agreement on a lot of issues, there’s still a lot of work to be done to finish the job – especially for nurses who work outside the hopsital.

An overwhelming super-majority of you signed the petition for a fair contract for ALL WSNA Southwest nurses, and we presented that to the Leadership team Tuesday afternoon. Alyssa Boswell from Home Hospice and Jacob Clark from CVICU both spoke on behalf of our bargaining unit when they delivered the petitions to our CNO during negotiations. The message they sent was clear: we count on our CNO to have nurses’ backs when she’s in the board as our leader and a fellow nurse, and we need her help to rebuild trust by moving our bargaining unit’s Home and Community Nurses back onto the Acute Care Pay Scale where they belong.

Call for a final push: There are ONLY THREE DAYS left of bargaining before our contract expires! The team needs everyone’s support to get the contract finished before 2/28. We won’t be rushed into a deal that isn’t good for everyone, but with your help we believe we can reach an agreement that gets everyone paid competitively and on time!

Join us TONIGHT!

Resources and tools

Document unsafe conditions

If you find yourself in a situation that you believe creates unsafe conditions for patients or for you, you should complete a Staffing Complaint / ADO Form as soon as possible.

By completing the form, you will help make the problem known to management, creating an opportunity for the problem to be addressed. Additionally, you will be documenting the facts, which may be helpful to you later if there is a negative outcome.

WSNA also uses your ADO forms to track the problems occurring in your facility. When you and your coworkers take the important step of filling out an ADO form, you are helping to identify whether there is a pattern of unsafe conditions for you or your patients at your facilities. This information is used by your conference committee, staffing committee, and WSNA labor staff to improve your working conditions.

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.
