The impact of non-union status on patient care can be multifaceted:
Resource Allocation: Non-unionized nurses may face challenges in securing adequate resources and staffing levels, which can impact patient care quality. Workload: Without union-negotiated limits, nurses may experience higher workloads and burnout, potentially compromising patient care. Professional Development: Unions often provide opportunities for continuing education and professional development, which might be less accessible to non-union nurses.
