Alaska Nurses The unified voice of nurses in the Last Frontier. Join us today!

The mission of the Alaska Nurses Association is to provide a voice for and to represent nurses across the entire state.

Next Tuesday, we’re coming together to show Alaska’s leaders just how much support there is for safe nurse staffing.

Join the Alaska Coalition for Safe Nurse Staffing for a Virtual Town Hall on Tuesday, October 13 at 8:00 PM via Zoom. A group of nurses from across the state will share their experiences with unsafe staffing and its impact on patients, nurses, and communities across Alaska.

You don’t need to speak to make an impact. Simply showing up matters.

We want legislators and candidates to see a virtual room full of Alaskans standing behind safe staffing legislation and supporting safer care across our state.

🗓️ Tuesday, October 13
🕗 8:00 PM
💻 Via Zoom

Show up and help us send a clear message: safe nurse staffing matters to Alaska.

Alaska nurses had a seat at the table with national leadership last week.

During her visit to Alaska, AFT President Randi Weingarten met with the Providence Registered Nurses bargaining team to hear directly from nurses about the realities of working in healthcare here, including concerns about safe staffing, patient safety and the challenges facing nurses at the bedside.

Conversations like these matter because they help bring the experiences of Alaska nurses beyond our hospitals and communities and into the broader national discussion around the future of healthcare.

Thank you, Randi, for coming to Alaska, listening to our nurses and helping ensure their voices are heard.
