I didn't get burned. I just see no value, only increassed difficulty in getting anything done. I am opposed to spending money for things I already own. I have a voice and can use it quite effectively. The union guarentees NOTHING except that it ...
This is a ploy to uncover my identitiy. The CNA knows me well. I don't think I will continue this line of questioning? Suffice it to say, I have worked under a CNA collective bargaining agreement. Next question?
In my experience, the union makes it's own rules for how "votes" go. Be it for contract ratification or for strike authorization. I have never seen a union do a public counting of ballots like the NLRB does. They count the ballots in private behin...
What on earth is AONE??? I oppose unions in hospitals because I have lived with them, have lived through strikes, negotiations, etc. Unions can negotiate little that I dont already have with existing laws. It makes hospitals more in the business of...
This Hospital had a decertification election for which the votes have yet to be counted. The NLRB has recently decided that part of the "Election Process Agreement" was illegal. Once that has been rectified, we will see if the Nurses at this hospit...
I just heard about the nurses at Centerpoint Medical Center wanting to Decertify the Nurses United (TEACHERS UNION) from their hospital. check it out at http://www.jluv.org :typing May God bless them!:yeah:
Just heard Cenerpoint Nurses have dates for their Decertification Election!!! April 23 and 24. BEST WISHES TO YOU ALL. I WISH YOU EVERY SUCCESS IN TAKING YOUR HOSPITAL AND YOUR VOICE BACK!!!!!
I certainly would NOT call them conservative! Why Not Texas, Mississippi or North Dakota? Me thinks they don't want to hear from EVERYONE. Well picked for preaching to the chior
Well that's just like CNA to misrepresent the truth! yes, they probably did get cards signed prior to the election. Maybe even 60%. But, when the nurses were educated by their PEERS about what the union really spends dues money on and their Anti Cath...
California Nurses Association is delaying a long awaited re run election for Inland Valley Medical Center RNs. In October of 2006 the nurses at Inland Valley voted to no longer be represented by the CNA after they were unable to negotiate a contract ...
Finally!!! The election date is set for Augusy 27 and 28. I hope the California Nurses Association listens to the nurses' NO VOTE this time. How long can they drag this rejection out?
I think you have a great question! When I was a student nurse, I was the vice president of my student nurses association and very active in legislative efforts in healthcare throug this. When I became an RN I initially worked for a hospital where the...
In California it is unlawful to combine breaks and lunch periods. I have worked in some units that have allowed this and then the manager got nailed for violating state law! The problem falls squarely on whatever the union negotiated into the contra...
Good opportunity for a response from good nurses: "nurses know they earn less and patients suffer when bureacrats run hospitals." Only a left wing trade union run by a non nurse and ex teamster would propose to saddle American families with a health ...

yes. This is quite legal. In fact, it would be ILLEGAL for management to support a union. New managers or managers who have never had any exposure to the National Labor Relations Act may be unaware and could find themselves in trouble for supporting ...

I used to work for a registry in California. about a year after the ratios went into effect 1:5 for med/surg. I was assigned 7 trach patients with G tubes. The nice thing was that none of my patients were on vents (because I was registry) They were r...
I have worked in many CA hospitals since the "ratio law" has gone into effect. I have a regular job at Long Beach Memorial where CNA has done nothing but make it harder for RNs to be cohesive and work together...but that isn'twhat I want to talk abo...
