This has a devastating impact on the nurses that gave their working lives to the hospital (+20years) and it’s chump change to NYP. Awful.

We’re still here ! We’ll sleep here if we have to.
We reject invitations to engage in “discussions” that were already settled. We had contract negotiations for that! We need NYP to honor the contract and respect the healthcare benefits our retirees worked for, NOW.

Nurse retirees have given decades of their lives to caring for patients only to be betrayed by . This is completely unacceptable.
We’re not going anywhere until administration respects the retiree healthcare plan in our contract!

Our hearts go out to the victims, friends & families, & all our Asian and AsAm members who are dealing with tragedy at the start of the #LunarNewYear. We must do more to reform gun laws so that all communities are free to live without fear of gun violence!

The crisis care model favored by corporate hospitals keeps our workplaces intentionally understaffed so they can make bigger profits.
It doesn't have to be this way. #SafeStaffing benefits nurses AND patients and morally is the right thing to do. #SolidaritySunday

56.8% of RNs report that staffing has gotten worse recently. We know what is to blame... the hospital industry's bottom line! They deliberately understaff hospitals with enough nurses to care for patients — and it’s only gotten worse during recent surges in respiratory illnesses.

Today I joined and our public sector nurses at the headquarters of NYC H+H to demand a fair contract!
The pay disparities between private and public sector nurses is a disgrace and our City should know and do better.
Thank you for having me and I’ll be back in March!

My late mother was a nurse. Yet, when she was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease, it felt like she didn’t have the care she needed after devoting decades to NYers’ care. Today nurses are demanding a fair contract, & we have a responsibility to ensure they get it!

When hospital systems prioritize their own bottom line over investing in safe staffing, nurses speak up and fight back.
Check out this great Op-Ed highlighting our strike and nurses’ urgent call for hospitals everywhere to invest in safe staffing.
