• Northwell Management introduced their initial set of proposals today. From start to finish, the proposals sought to eliminate nurses' power and rights in the workplace. The Hospital claims that there's a Give and Take Relationship in negotiations. So far, it seems that they're expecting hard-working nurses to give while they take, take, take. Some of the highlights include proposals that seek to: Eliminate no mandatory overtime provision Eliminate self-scheduling Have new-grad fellows in the critical care float pool Reduce break time for 7.5 hr employees Eliminate the 2nd floor nurses' lounge Eliminate float differential for RNs working overtime Proof of Death for bereavement leave Watch our Bargaining Committee Member, Sheree-Ann Dyer giving her reactions to today's session. #nurse #nurselife #safepatientlimits #safestaffingsaveslives #workersrights #laborunion #unionnurse #1u #contractnegotiations #collectivebargaining #hottake #nomandatoryovertime

  • Despite NYPNU nurses alerting management nearly two months ago (and several times since, even to @northwellhealth Chief Nursing Officer Maureen White) that predicted staffing for September was critically low, management in the Postpartum-Well Baby units did nothing to proactively prepare. Today, staffing is critically short with all nurses having 2 or more patients above their safe patient limit. Management has offered no solutions but to ask/guilt already over-worked nurses to perform overtime. #nurse #nurses #unionnurses #safepatientlimits #safestaffingsaveslives #lenoxhillhospital #maternalfetalmedicine #maternalchildhealth #nursepatientratio

  • Yesterday, over a hundred of you showed up to demand that @northwellhealth stop overworking and underpaying nurses. Today, our fight for safe staffing levels, higher wages, and better benefits for every nurse and nurse practitioner that works at Lenox Hill Hospital, Manhattan Eye, Ear and Throat Hospital, and Lenox Health Greenwich Village begins.

  • #standwithnurses this #laborday tell @northwellhealth to invest in #patientsafety and hire more nurses to provide safe patient care. Since January, nurses have been telling management that they do not have enough staff to safely care for all their patients. Still, management refuses to provide the needed staff to adhere to national safety standards. #union #nurselife #nursesunion #solidarity #1u
