""Nurses demand the removal of immigration enforcement agents from communities, the abolition of ICE, and accountability for this administration's crimes against all residents of the United States.""
""The nurses are the ones that oversee the patient care. We're there 24/7, and we have to be the person protecting the patient's rights.""
National Nurses United, representing over 225,000 registered nurses, demands the abolition of ICE and accountability for immigration enforcement actions. The union's statement reflects ongoing efforts by nurses to protect patient rights in immigration detention, including freedom from shackling and the right to communicate with loved ones. Nurses advocate for stronger workplace policies to safeguard these rights and protect themselves from liability. Registered nurses emphasize their role in overseeing patient care and ensuring the protection of patients' rights in healthcare settings.
