Happy Nurses Week
Posted May 9, 2025

Thank you for the excellent care you provide to our veterans and dependents. You are truly appreciated.
Enjoy a little gift sent to your workplace from your WSNA Officers.
Representational Rights
Please know you have a right to union representation if your manager ever calls you in for an investigatory meeting, which may potentially lead to discipline.
Notify one of your WSNA officers or WSNA Nurse Representative.
Staffing Complaint Form -ADO – Assignment Despite Objection
If you feel you’re in an unsafe staffing situation, let your charge nurse or supervisor know so they have the opportunity to fix it. If they are unable to make changes, please fill out the WSNA Staffing Complaint form called the ADO (Assignment Despite Objection) form. Go to wsna.org/ado or scan the barcode below.

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.
