Only 200 days until our contract expires
Posted Jul 12, 2024
Fill out the pre-negotiation survey today!
The current union contract with St. Clare Hospital expires on January 31, 2025. While January might seem distant in this July heat, we have a lot of hard work to do to secure the best contract possible. We need your help every step of the way. The first step is to fill out the pre-negotiation survey we are launching today!
This survey is your chance to tell us what truly matters to you as the nurses who tirelessly make St. Clare’s better for everyone—our nurses, our patients, and our community. By completing the survey, you can highlight your top priorities for the new contract and the issues you want addressed. You can also indicate if you’re interested in serving on the bargaining team or helping out with negotiations as a unit rep.
The strength of our contract with St. Clare Hospital depends on the solidarity and unity of our bargaining unit. Let's show our strength from day one by filling out this survey. We encourage you to complete it as soon as possible by following the QR code or link below.
We are excited to represent you at the bargaining table and to work together to continue making St. Clare one of the best places to work as a nurse in Washington.
In Solidarity,
Clarissa Korrell, Co-Chair
Devon Tallma, Co-Chair
Jessica Cook, Secretary
Nicole Sandell, Treasurer

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.
