  • Nurses are the glue that holds a hospital together. And sometimes, while caring for their patients, they're also holding families together. It's a tough job and often, a thankless job. Nurses are amazing!!

  • Nurse staffing is a question of life or death for patients and the difference, for a nurse, between joyful, fulfilling work and screaming out loud stress. Even the most excellent nurse can be overworked to the point of incompetence. I support these courageous nurses with all my soul.

    —Kay T.

  • Every time my family and I visit a health care facility or hospital, it is the nurses who make you feel safe, cared for, and listened to every step of the way. Nurses are the backbone of our health care system, and they deserve a fair contract and respect. They know what patient ratios are safe ... listen to them!

    —Kate S.

  • I am a two-time cancer patient at RWJ and saw first-hand how hard they work. I love my doctors, but the nurses are the ones you spend the most time with and who you rely on the hours, days, and months that you have to be there!!!!

    —Moira A.

  • You got this! We believe in you guys and everything you are fighting for!!!! Thank you for everything you’ve done and that you do. We stand with you!

  • Nurses are the backbone of every hospital. From the moment you step into the hospital until you leave there is a nurse there for you. I thank you for that. Hang in there, ONE DAY LONGER, ONE DAY STRONGER!

  • Don't give in, fight for what you and your families deserve!

    —Patty H.

  • Nurses keep patients safe and provide hands-on care and necessary information to physicians. To not support nurses is irresponsible and affects patients negatively.

  • My sister-in-law is a nurse at RWJ. She works very hard and loves what she does. She deserves fair staffing and much more help than what she's getting.

    —Tiffany S.

  • Strong nurses are the base of the care we patients receive while at your facility. They are there supporting us during some of our darkest moments.

    —Jenn F.

  • The work you do is incredible, and incredibly important! All of us will experience a time in life where we or a loved one will be in the care of a nurse – and we should all hope that the nurses taking care of us and our loved ones are given the resources they need to ensure safety for themselves and their patients. Safe staffing just makes sense!

    —Rachael E., Local 3657

  • As a former ICU RN, I have seen first-hand how inadequate staffing can compromise patient safety, staff safety, and negatively impact unit morale. The RWJ nurses are one of a kind—knowledgeable, caring, patient-centered, and true advocates for safety.
