   dianacl replied to LumpyRN's topic in Union

   I never heard of a union being "to busy" to help workers. If this is the response you recieved when you asked for help then you are right to look elsewhere. You can start with your State Nurse Association. Also check with nurses you work with along w...

   dianacl replied to PICUPNP's topic in Union

   I understand there was a vote that took place and a vote count at the end. That's all I asked. I get it about the charges. My point is it shouldn't come to charges if the job is being done correctly. No one thinks for a minute that the employer wants...

    dianacl replied to MistyDawnRN06's topic in Union

    The only thing I know about the NNU is that the UAN merged with them. I think they are a new union. I know the OPEIU has been around a long time. Most hospitals in the union in Florida have been in SEIU. They do have a healtcare division. Some like t...

    dianacl replied to MistyDawnRN06's topic in Union

    Do you already belong to a Union at your hospital? If you belong to one then yes you are being raided if another union gets involved. If you are not in a union then its not a raid.
