For more than two and a half years, UW Health Nurses have asked for their union to be recognized. They said having a union would allow them to “have a seat at the table” in advocating for themselves, their patients and their community.
Emily Kumlien, UW Health Press Secretary told 27 News:
“At UW Health, we encourage our nurses to make their voices heard. Hundreds of them are doing that through our shared governance system of nursing councils, driving the continuous improvement that makes us not just a great place to work, but the #1 hospital in Wisconsin 11 straight years.”
