We value women’s health!

Our FBC nurses tried to get management to pay attention to the staffing problems in their unit by consistently filing ADOs, which go to the unit manager, staffing committee members, and WSNA. Although management did not pay attention to these ADOs the nurses on the staffing committee and WSNA did.

That is the reason for this petition. To raise our voices in solidarity and shout we need safe staffing in the FBC that includes rest and meal breaks. We also are adamant the lactation consultant nurses be placed on the same wage scale as the rest of us.
