You want transparency and we want to give you the facts. We, your fellow nurses on the WSNA negotiating team, will be holding sessions to provide information and work to answer the outstanding questions. Following the “NO” vote, we heard from RNs around the hospital. In response, this meeting is designed to hear and respond to your questions and concerns about the previously negotiated proposal and talk about next steps.

We are in the process of scheduling another bargaining session with the federal mediator.

EVERY RN needs to come and continue the conversation. You must be part of the dialogue and solution. We need your help to move forward in the process of securing the best contract possible for everyone.
