  1. Potential MN Nurses Strike?

    So much for negotiations. MNA is filing a 10 day strike notice this morning.
  2. Potential MN Nurses Strike?

    84% of those who voted, voted for a strike. That's less than 55% of membership who actually did vote for the strike. They're going to attempt negotiations again on Thursday. Although with the NNU refusing to budge in any way, shape or form on their ...
  3. Potential MN Nurses Strike?

    Any chance this actually happened at a Minnesota hospital? I'm growing quite tired of anecdotal stories like these, especially when they haven't occurred in the hospitals negotiating right now. Also, he wouldn't have been left wet for so long if the...
  4. I seriously have to wonder how many posters here actually work in one of the affected MN hospitals. Do you guys have any clue what the staffing situation is here? We have excellent ratios at my hospital and excellent outcomes. Our contract already ha...
  5. Potential MN Nurses Strike?

    So what part of chanting with bull horns and driving up and down the street in front of hospital zones honking, as well as encouraging/forcing other vehicles to honk by stepping into the streets was designed to minimize the impact on the patients? We...
  6. Potential MN Nurses Strike?

    Then why now and not over the past 3 years of the current contract? They aren't trying to "inform" the public. They've realized that the public is wholly against them, believes that the strikes are over financial gains, and only now brings these to l...
  7. INCREDIBLE CNA/NNOC victory in Houston.

    I apologize if this has already been mentioned, I only checked the last few pages. I was checking the National Right To Work website just now, looking for those sample union resignation letters (I'm resending them certified mail this time so I won't...
  8. Potential MN Nurses Strike?

    Nothing like having the MNA further trash our reputations for the public. Now we're airing "horror stories" of short staffing to sway the public towards our cause. That's not going to back-fire at all I've been following the comments on the Star Tr...
  9. Potential MN Nurses Strike?

    This is the sort of garbage we keep hearing from people who listen to gossip rather than searching out the truth. For starters, the hospitals NEVER wanted to float nurses from hospital to hospital. It was NEVER in their contract proposals. The idea t...
  10. Potential MN Nurses Strike?

    They've just announced the "one-day" strike will be held June 10th.
  11. Potential MN Nurses Strike?

    Feedback we're getting from our hospitals is that relief workers are hired on a weekly basis. With the 10 day advance notification the hospitals intend to essentially (from the sounds of it) make the same adjustments they would have made if it were a...
  12. Potential MN Nurses Strike?

    Wow, nothing like bizarre baseless insults huh? Exactly what do you hope to accomplish with such comments? I don't think it's irrational "fretting" when there have been so many layoffs last year. And the union has proven they care more about seniorit...
  13. Potential MN Nurses Strike?

    Just found out more about the striking stuff today. The safety of your job hinges on what type of strike is called. If it's an economic strike the employer can permanently replace workers, once the strike is over there's no telling how remaining nurs...
  14. Home Health Agencies?

    I suggest looking for companies that do private-duty nursing rather than case management. With private-duty work you spend your 8-12 hour shift in the patients home taking care of one individual. You'll get more hands-on time with your patients and I...
  15. RN-BSN in MN

    It really depends on the instructor as to the level that Christianity is incorporated. Many of the instructors do start the class periods out with a short devotion and a prayer. I know at least one of our shorter text books was written by a Catholic ...
