NOLA Nurses United

Union nurses of NOLA fighting for our patients and our profession 🔥

[NOLA Nurses United @nolanursesunite]

Hospitals are places of healing, not violence. Last night, we were joined by hundreds of community members in demanding that UMC protect all of our patients regardless of their immigration status. Our patients’ rights have no borders. ✊

Union nurses are proud to picket with striking Starbucks baristas across Louisiana!

❌ NO CONTRACT, NO COFFEE ❌

Starbucks baristas are calling for a NATION-WIDE boycott of EVERY Starbucks store for the duration of their strike. Don’t cross the picket line! 🙅🙅‍♀️🙅‍♂️

Another HUGE win for the South as Texas nurses at St. Joseph Health College Station Hospital decisively win their union election and join NNU💪

❤️ To Bryan College Station nurses — NOLA nurses have got your back! ❤️

New Orleans nurses at @UMCNO delivered a notice for a three-day strike for nurse retention. See you on the line Nov 11 - 13! 🪧📢✊

Nurses at University Medical Center New Orleans work tirelessly in dangerous conditions to provide the best care to their patients. They voted to form a union over 620 days ago & are still fighting for their first contract.

Unacceptable. UMCNO must deliver a fair contract now.

LCMC has hidden behind the “Spirit of Charity” as it fleeces patients by up to 6x and wastes millions of dollars on union-busting. Join us Monday the 18th at 5:30pm in front of Charity Hospital for a press conference as we call on LCMC to adopt the true spirit of Charity.

UMC nurses are standing united in our fight to win a strong contract for our community. LCMC wants us to give up but we will never stop fighting for our patients!

[NOLA Nurses United @nolanursesunite]

UMC nurses have voted to go on STRIKE! We want to negotiate a strong contract that puts PATIENTS over PROFITS. That’s why we’ll be striking on February 5th and 6th — to show LCMC that we will always fight for our community. Join us!

Nurses at unionized HCA hospitals across the South had a HUGE win this year! Their new contract guarantees up to a 29% wage increase over the next 3 years, coverage for meal breaks, safer staffing, and safer floating practices. Here’s what one nurse had to say:

[National Nurses United @NationalNurses]

Look what @UMCNO management made us do!

Nurses are in our #RNStrike era because we're seeing RED due to management short-changing our patients every day.

[NOLA Nurses United @nolanursesunite]

UMC RNs made history in Louisiana today with the state’s first nurse strike. We’re standing up for our health, safety, and care for our patients!

[NOLA Nurses United @nolanursesunite]

UMC RNs are out on the picket line fighting for their patients… and having a great time!

[National Nurses United @NationalNurses]

#UnionStrong nurses in New Orleans are fired up on the strike line today – standing up for our health, safety, and care for our patients!

Our message to @UMCNO management: We won’t take it anymore! ✊

UMC nurses are kicking off Taylor Swift weekend with the FIRST nurse strike in Louisiana’s history. We WILL strike for our patients. Are you ready for it? #nola #nurse #erastour

[NOLA Nurses United @nolanursesunite]

UMC nurses held a strike vote over the weekend where 98% of nurses voted YES on a 1-day strike to put pressure on LCMC to move on their proposals that will improve patient safety and care at the hospital. See you on the picket line!

[NOLA Nurses United @nolanursesunite]

UMC nurses are holding a strike vote this weekend to increase the pressure on LCMC to settle a contract that ensures safe staffing for our NOLA community. We will strike for our patients!

[NOLA Nurses United @nolanursesunite]

When nurses work understaffed, we can’t provide the care our patients need. We’re organizing at CHNOLA to fight for safe staffing ratios in every unit.

[NOLA Nurses United @nolanursesunite]

4 NICU patients per nurse is 2x the safe limit. We will never stop fighting for our patients to get the care they need.

[NOLA Nurses United @nolanursesunite]

Nurses are holding a press conference TOMORROW 9/27 @ 8:30am — tune in!
