It only takes two minutes to make your voice heard! RNPA is urging everyone to contact Governor Gavin Newsom and ask him to sign AB 1383, legislation that supports the public employees who keep our communities safe and running, including firefighters, emergency responders, nurses, and other essential public servants.

AB 1383 has passed both the California Assembly and Senate and now awaits action from Governor Newsom. Show your support for the people who serve our communities every day!

Patient safety starts with nurses. Every day, nurses are on the front lines, monitoring patients, catching changes early, speaking up about concerns and making sure patients receive the care they need. The best advocate for your safety as a patient is the nurse who is with you every step of the way.

This World Patient Safety Day, RNPA recognizes our members for the essential role they play in keeping patients safe. Safe care requires safe staffing and the resources nurses need to do their jobs well. Thank you to our nurses for advocating for their patients and for each other. 💙
