Newfoundland and Labrador registered nurses and nurse practitioners will participate in a national day of action and hold information pickets across our province to demand urgent action to fix the nursing crisis.
Nurses across the country are overworked, exhausted and fed up. We are done asking for safe work, fair contracts and enough staff to give patients the care they deserve.
Show your support! Please join us on Friday, September 17.
