Brigham and Women's Picket, Thursday, October 12, 2006, Boston, MA
 

Brockton VNA Informational Picket, Wednesday, April 26, 2006

Is it time for a union at your hospital?
  • Not enough staffing to provide patients with the care they deserve?
  • Mandatory overtime even when you’re dead on your feet?
  • Outdated pay scales and benefit programs?
  • No voice in your workplace?

For many nurses and health care professionals, this is not a bad day…it’s every day. How has your day been?

You can join with the more than 23,000 nurses and health care professionals represented by the Massachusetts Nurses Association/New England Nurses Association. By organizing a union at your workplace with the MNA/NENA your voice will be heard.

Take part in the vital decisions that affect you and your patients. Be on the front lines for positive change. Prepare for better days.

You can have a voice with the MNA/NENA…but first you have to make the call!
