Welcome to Nurses for Nurses
If you are visiting this site we were successful in decertifying the UFCW and keeping the SEIU from organizing our hospital! If you would like us to speak to you or your professional nurses, please email us @ webmaster@nursesfornursesfornone.com
We would love to continue to support the voice of the professional registered nurse.
We are an independent non-funded group of St. John's Mercy Medical Center Professional nurses who are committed to furthering the profession of nursing at St. John's.
We view our profession as a call to duty and we know that we are fully capable of thinking and speaking for ourselves. We believe we can improve our jobs and the quality of patient care that we can deliver by working directly with the nursing leadership.
We believe in being part of the solution and wish to be in charge of our own future and have no interest in paying dues for representation.
We agree never to use patients or their well-being as a vehicle to fulfill our own personal needs.
We have been represented by a union for almost 8 years and believe that only the union and a small handful of its supporters have benefited from all the dues we have paid.
Some of us were terminated from our jobs because the Union went to Court to get us fired.
Now the SEIU is trying to get our money and be our representative and we see no value in this approach. The union has proven to us that the union process does not work for St. John's Mercy professional nurses.
We believe in being a professional ambassador for nursing and will not tolerate intimidation or bullying activities in any of our interactions.
If you share these same beliefs we would like you to join us. There is safety in numbers. We will keep your interest in our group confidential if you want us to.
We are Billie Breen, Jamie Lindsley, Tracey Noble, Cathi Smith, Mary Tebbe, Seanna Eisel, Jennifer Rellergert, Bev Fields, Angela Hunt, Tammy Alderson, Michelle Keating, Jolene Grbcich, Lori Whyte, Monica Glaser, Linda Reinhardt, Pam Cutshall, Kats Berryhill, Eileen Sandlin, Ani Chereji, Jim Branca, Sarah McGrew, Anne Albers, Lynn Trout, Lisa Winter, Linda Hahn, Julie Ann Maier, Mary Bohning, Sue Hahn, Pam Disney, Linda McLane, Donna Vasquez, Jan Vogt, Boni Hart, Linda Meyers, Mary Bast, Marie Collins, Mary Ann Maher, Gail Hurt, Kathleen Simpson, Sherry Felker, Greg Ritter, Loreen Cope, Jan Webster, Carol Caruso, Mary Ann Rice, Chris Boyer, Mary O'Brien, Linda Adcock, Angie Hayes, Amy Wise, Shayla Price, Brianne Griffin, Judi Beck, Maureen Bahr, Cindy Bishop, Bridget Whitson, Kathy Smith, Ursula Wright, Laura Kuensting, Meg Lang, Kim Kraft, Dorothy Roth, Jenny Schwartz, Mary McCoy, Barb Sicking, Laura Sease, Cory Hess, Daniel Roberts, Candy Bizelli, Donna Kastner, Angela Schrum, Amy McLean, Shelley Matlock, Sue Hornof, Lisa Berry, Sarah McGrew, Tracy Rahn, Kris Morrell, Lin Morse, Joe Nahlik, Adel Petterson, Emma Hoffee, Doris Conn and Nolene Dugan to name a few.

We are an independent group of nurses - not supported or affliated with any member of the management at St. John's Mercy Medical Center.
VOTE NEITHER - AUGUST 8-11
Thanks to those who have already voted. You may hear from your co-workers that the election is over and that you do not need to vote. This is absolutely not true!
Your vote will count regardless of the intimidation tactics being used to discourage you. Please vote!
Despite the union tactics, we are very encouraged by the positive optimism that we can feel in this building today!
Although some of our co-workers' votes have been challenged at the poll, we would like to encourage you to continue to realize that your vote is very important!
This is a well known union tactic to discourage voting from those opposed to union success! Do not be discouraged! PLEASE VOTE and VOTE NEITHER!
We trust that many of the challenged votes will be counted!
It is disappointing to see our building defaced with lavender fuzzies and stickers adhered to our walls, lockers, phones, etc.
Rest assured that we will continue to maintain the highest level of professionalism throughout the election and beyond.
Please vote with an informed mind and a true heart. Be an informed voter. Research the biographical information about the leadership of the SEIU. Click on the following link for more information.

Your vote DOES count regardless of what you have been told.
We have a personal responsibility to be a professional team of registered nurses.
We are all on the same team and need to work together!
Support the professional practice of nursing and VOTE NEITHER!
REMEMBER TO VOTE: If you need an escort to walk with you or a friendly face to join you on the 6th floor, please call us.
REMEMBER to keeping talking to your co-workers because the last person to talk to a co-worker may decide the vote.
AS ALWAYS - stay positive and professional! We look forward to your NEITHER vote!
It has come to our attention that the Union has non Medical Center people dressed in Medical Center scrubs in the hospital talking with the RNs. How professional is this practice? Would professional nurses impersonate other professions? Is this the type of group we want representing us? We need to be professional at all times. VOTE NEITHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
