Dear Member:
As you may know, Article 4.7 of our local’s constitution grants the executive board the ability to change the number and names of the VPs as well as reconfigure the areas the VPs cover.
After a thorough examination of the VP slots and areas that they cover, the Executive Board decided to change the number and configuration of the Vice President’s slots to facilitate better representation and serve the membership.
The Board voted on January 16, 2024 to increase the number of Vice Presidents from 5 to 7 and change the areas they cover. This change will take place for the upcoming nomination and election period this spring.
The new Vice Presidents names and areas they cover will be:
- Psychiatric (West 4), Geriatric Psychiatry (West 3), Addiction Medicine, (Center 1)
- Intensive Care Unit (ICU), Critical Care Unit (CCU), Case Managers, Nurse Educators
- Interventional Radiology (IR), Endoscopy, Nuclear Medicine
- Ambulatory Surgery Unit (ASU), Post Anesthesia Unit (PACU), Peri-Operative Services (POS)
- Emergency Department (ED), Behavioral Health Room (B-Room)
- Cancer Center, Bone Marrow Transplant Unit (BMT)
- Medical Surgical/Telemetry (Center 3, E3A, E3B, E2B), Bariatric and Surgical Oncology/Orthopedic Surgery (C4, E4), Floats
If you have any questions, please feel free to call me at 401-486-9638.
You will be receiving notice of the nominations and elections in the mail shortly.
In Solidarity,
Lynn Redding, President
