Candidate statement
Our union needs to change. How? I helped write the current strategic plan, advocating for a member led union. A constitution that reflects this ideal where members’ priorities are heard, acted on, a union that empowers members to take the lead, and an infrastructure to support the realisation of members’ hopes for nurses and nursing in New Zealand is next. Right now, nurses must win fair and equitable pay and safe staffing to enable us to do our job the way we are meant to. In 2019, I co-wrote a successful remit to start the work towards safe staffing legislation. This must happen to keep our government, public/private nurse employers accountable. I am a delegate of 30 years with integrity, standing for President to work with all members so we can be Freed to care, proud to nurse. Want to know more? Please contact me.

Candidate statement
NZNO is positioned to represent nurses and will bring about positive change. As a Board member, involved in strategic planning and governance I continue to learn. I owned my own business, am a clinical expert and am leading the current constitution review. I continue to champion nursing/medical and paramedic students, from these experiences I have been trained in and continue to learn about human resource development and accountability. My aim is that we will be a leading voice and have a seat at the table before decisions are made that effect our working environment. This will include increasing our membership, developing position papers, creating new alliances with government and industry, creatively involving students, and taking up important nursing issues. It would be my great honour to take these next steps with you as your President.
