Dedicated to Care. Fighting for Change. | Les soins sont notre mission. Le changement est notre combat.
Every year in May, we celebrate the Registered Nurses (RN), Registered Practical Nurses (RPN) and Nurse Practitioners (NP) who support us and our communities. The theme chosen by the Ontario Nurses’ Association (ONA) this year reflects both the focus of the work that nurses do and their need to fight for better working conditions.
