On August 1st, Annmarie Ruggiero stepped down as Local President, I thank Annmarie for her tireless work and dedication to our Pocono members. I hope to pick up where Annmarie left-off working hard for the members at LVH-Pocono.
Annmarie and I joined other nurses across PA, lobbying for the Patient Safety Act in Harrisburg. Annmarie and I also met with the PA Department of Health to discuss nursing issues through the Nurse Advisory Council.
I have been very active in pushing for additional CARES Act funding in Pennsylvania and I serve on an advisory council that discusses policies to direct hospital regulations.
Several years ago, I began serving in the Union as a Local Steward. During the last Contract Negotiations, I served on the Negotiating Team. After Contract Ratification, I was asked to fill the role of Local Vice President.
I have been a nurse since 2008 and hold a BSN in nursing from Wilkes University. I work in the Interventional Radiology department at LVH-Pocono and currently live in Gouldsboro, PA.
