Due to my shiftwork, and also due to the fact that if and when I
do get to watch TV, I keep falling asleep halfway through the
shows, I don't recall an episode where the nurses in Gray's Anatomy
went on strike.
But I suppose it won't be far from that. During the strike,
advanced notice was given to the govt bodies, the strike was held
in a stadium, hospitals organised buses to bring nurses to the
strike, and if you wanted to participate but were scheduled to
work, just tell your Team Leader and negotiate your roster with
her.
It is very good to have a strong union backing you up. I can't wait
to find out what increment we will get and whether nurse:patient
ratio will be improved for the safety of all!
