Did you know that Hamilton Health Sciences is cutting nurses in operating rooms? Use @ontarionurses tool to send a message to your MPP telling them to call on @HamHealthSci to keep nurses in the scrub nurse role https://t.co/GxIsFWhBcq
Hamilton residents, join RNs at their rally Dec. 7, 3:30-6 pm at @HamHealthSci to tell them that patients need nurses as the scrub nurse for their expert, specialized knowledge, skill & judgement. RSVP here: https://t.co/u8sYemDQ0O
Thank you @MTaylorNDP!

Stop the misinformation! @RobMacIsaac tell @SylviaJonesMPP the truth! You have unregulated ORAs working in the scrub nurse role, but you aren’t telling patients. They are assisting surgeons w/medications, biopsies, implants, sterility, & skin retraction. #ONpoli 🧵 1/2
Join ONA Local 70 to stop the replacement of scrub nurses in operating rooms & cuts to Registered Nurses in surgeries. RNs need your help to stop this surgical model that risks patient safety. Can we count on you?

ONA is joining with other public-sector labour unions in Ontario in celebrating today’s Ontario Superior Court decision that rules Bill 124 as unconstitutional and contrary to s 2(d) of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. #ONpoli#RepealBill124

.@SylviaJonesMPP@fordnation patient safety over cost savings needs to be your priority for surgeries. Sounds like a step to private surgeries we can’t afford. Stop @HamHealthSci replacing scrub nurses with unregulated operating room assistants.
Thank you @maritstiles! #onpoli
.@HamHealthSci, @SylviaJonesMPP: ONA says stop replacing scrub nurses with operating room assistants in orthopedic, gynecology, plastics & other surgeries. Patients are not stable under anesthesia needing specialized licensed care nurses provide. #KeepORNursesInScrubRole#onpoli
@schulte_ss Not to mention should not be lifting more than 5lbs of weight and given no instructions how to manage that or the the pain and still take care of another human being. 😒
