'Respect us,' Sudbury nurses tell premier, government Back to video
Registered practical nurses (RPNs) in Northern Ontario are experiencing greater levels of anxiety, workplace violence, workload pressures and other negative impacts when compared to other RPNs across Ontario.
The Ontario Council of Hospital Unions and the Canadian Union of Public Employees (OCHU/CUPE), in an online teleconference, released these finding this week and outlined in an RPN Members’ Survey.
As part of a Zoom news event to release the survey, the union called on some Northern Ontario nurses to comment.
Karen Brosseau, an RPN who has been working in Sudbury for 29 years, said she never thought she would have to work through SARS or the current COVID pandemic.
