However, there are also significant drawbacks to consider:
Lack of Collective Bargaining Power: Individual nurses may have less power to negotiate better wages, benefits, and working conditions. Job Security: Unionized nurses often have stronger job security protections compared to their non-union counterparts. Support: Unions provide a support system for addressing grievances, legal issues, and other workplace challenges. Advocacy: Unions often advocate for safer working conditions and higher standards of care, benefitting both nurses and patients.
