We care about your safety and the safety of those you care about.
To promote the health of our nurses and community members we would like to invite you to join us for a mask distribution event. We will be providing disposable surgical masks, donated by our affiliate AFT, as well as other gifts to those who stop by our table.
Join us to help us distribute these gifts or just drop by and say hello! We are available to answer your questions and support you.
Date: Tuesday, September 29
Time: 7:00 am- until we run out of supplies
Where: Wright Park, Tacoma. Please look for the WSNA table.
Please note, surgical masks are for daily use and are not considered PPE.

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
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.
