Nurses' Rights
Nurses need a strong voice on the job — that voice is NYSNA.
By coming together, NYSNA members ensure that our patients get the care they deserve, and that we get the pay, benefits, and respect we need to keep providing quality care. NYSNA RNs are stronger together and have won safe staffing ratios, professional pay and benefits, and a voice in patient care decisions.
As a nurse, a worker, and a union member, you have rights! Learn more about your rights that are guaranteed in the workplace by our federal and state governments and get involved in NYSNA to help defend those rights.
