The announcement coincides with the latest CDC statistics regarding the ongoing pandemic, which indicate in no uncertain terms that among the nearly 300,000 infections of American health care personnel the toll has fallen hardest on nurses.

In fact, a recent study published by the LA Times indicated that over two thirds of hospitalized healthcare workers were nurses.

As such, there has never been a more important time for nurses to have the full support of their advocacy body.

By taking up membership with the American Nurses Association of California nurses across California can help themselves, their colleagues and their patients get the political, media and legislative attention and recognition they deserve.

Utilizing the power of numbers, ANA California can help to create meaningful change and improvements for member nurses in San Diego, Sacramento and the San Francisco Bay Area in the form of updated legislation, regulation and policy.

Their expansive legal watch and regulatory services are especially critical in this time as the Californian public medical system continues to suffer under the pandemic and as nurse shortages continue to force existing workers to commit to more overtime, often in increasingly untenable conditions.

Interested nurses in the California region now also have the opportunity to attend their advocacy institute, which empowers its students with the skills to become professional nurse advocates, in turn enacting positive change for fellow nurses in their community.

The mission statement of American Nurses Association California is to enhance the health and well-being of Californians and advance the profession of nursing by focusing on the four key paragons of quality care, quality experience, quality profession and quality nurses.

As American Nurses Association California member and the Nurse Manager at UC San Diego Medical Center Laura Chechel said, “All nurses should be a part of ANA California to ensure our collective voice is heard in policy and legislation that affects our daily practice.”
