UNA Mental Health Caucus is pleased to announce a Fireside Chat with Mental Health Nurse Leaders on May 8, 2024 at the Quarry Golf Course (and on Zoom) during 2024 Nurses' Week Celebrations.
This will be moderated discussion and a celebration of the work and dedication of RPNs and RNs over the last century in Alberta and Canada, and to generate deliberation, consideration and debate about the future for RPNs and RNs in this distinct, progressive and rapidly evolving area of nursing.
UNA Local 183 is hosting the event and it will also be live-streamed out to the rest of UNA mental health nurses to be able to participate in this convivial discussion. A moderator will be taking questions on-line, compiling them and conveying them to the Panelists in real time.
Mental health nursing has a long and storied history, with a hope to foster a bright, meaningful and progressive future through advocacy and education.
There are 1000 spots reserved for UNA members all across Alberta. Members can request a Professional Development day from their manager that day to attend. Please reach out to Mental Health Nurses in your Local and let them know about this opportunity.

Spring is here!
Many of us are familiar with the concept of spring cleaning. This year, consider taking some time to spring clean your digital life, too. Just like your home, your digital life can become cluttered; things pile up, get out of date, get lost, are no longer needed or need some care.
And with negotiations ongoing, it is important to ensure that your information is current to keep informed.
