In the wake of the latest police killing of an African American man in Minneapolis, National Nurses United joins those calling for systemic reform on the use of deadly force by law enforcement agencies, and increased review of discriminatory practices that infer a racial bias.
Today I walked into my last shift at United Hospital indefinitely. Monday at 0700 my colleagues will walk out and onto the sidewalk, facing their patient’s windows, to begin an open-ended strike.
Global Nurses United, which unites nurses and other health care workers in 20 countries around the world, stands in solidarity with the registered nurses at Allina Health in the State of Minnesota in the United States in their courageous struggle with management to secure safer care for patients and just working conditions for themselves.
