Albany Med NICU nurses stickered up to demand management respect the contract and enforce the new vacation language! In the latest contract, Albany Med nurses won improved vacation policy language that ensures every nurse the opportunity to take the time they earn in a year. However, management has yet to follow and enforce the policy that was agreed upon. All NICU nurses and some fellow healthcare professionals on the unit sported their stickers to show their solidarity!

The Trump Department of Education's proposed rule to exclude nursing from "professional degree" programs could not come at a worse time. This proposal will limit access and make advanced practice nursing education less affordable at a time when we need more nurses to deliver safe patient care in New York State and throughout the country.

This proposal is an insult to the nurses who work hard day and night caring for patients with professionalism and skill and to those nurses seeking to advance their education. NYSNA vehemently opposes this proposed rule, which will cause more economic hardship for nurses and damage the future of the nursing workforce and our public health.
