NY NURSES NEED OUR HELP!
SAFE STAFFING IS NEEDED AND YOU CAN HELP!
As you know, nurses throughout New York State are working hard to pass the Safe Staffing for Quality Care Act to set safe staffing standards in our hospitals.
We are gearing up to make a final push to get this important piece of legislation passed.
NYSNA is a founding member of the NY Campaign for Patient Safety, a coalition of nurse, union, consumer protection, and healthcare groups across New York that are fighting for a safe staffing law. With a new, powerful coalition behind us, legislators are supporting the Safe Staffing for Quality Care Act like never before. And the politics in our state are finally lining up to make passing staffing ratios within our reach.
Contact Crystal Rogers crystal.jennings-rogers@nysna.org to RSVP for our rally in Queens. Your attendance is important! NYSNA members will be out in force to make sure lawmakers in Albany understand that it is essential for them to pass the Safe Staffing for Quality Act this year.
NYSNA members will join together with coalition members, patients and allies for a statewide

We can’t wait to see you at one of these safe staffing rallies!
