The American Nurses Association (ANA) vehemently denounces all forms of cultural and religious discrimination. This stance is not only a moral duty, but one rooted in the very fabric of our professional ethics which demand respect, dignity, and sensitivity to all individuals regardless of their background, culture, or religion. Antisemitism is a reprehensible form of hatred that continues to cause deep suffering and irreparable pain to generations of individuals and communities of Jewish heritage or faith worldwide. Any act of hatred, violence, or discrimination against Jewish communities has no place in a humane society.

ANA Issues Updated Climate Change Position
Zina Gontscharow According to the World Health Organization, climate change is the biggest health threat facing humanity. This assertion opens ANA’s latest position statement – Nurses’ Role in Addressing Global Climate Change, Climate Justice, and Health–which was released today. This new position statement builds on previous work at ANA around the nurses’ role in addressing this global health issue. Recognizing that climate change is a critical public health issue, the position statement calls for nurses to take action while providing additional guidance for nurses in all specialties and settings. From the Minnesota Department of Health:

Keziah Proctor, [email protected] SILVER SPRING, MD – Today, the American Nurses Association (ANA) underscores the urgency for Congressional leaders, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and other key stakeholders to advance efforts in the implementation of safe staffing standards, including minimum nurse-to-patient ratios. MEDIA CONTACTS:
Shannon McClendon, [email protected] SILVER SPRING – MD - The American Nurses Association (ANA) strongly opposes any legislation or effort that would prohibit diversity, equity, inclusion (DEI) programs or dictate how history is taught. Prohibiting colleges, universities and health care-related professional institutions and licensing boards from adopting DEI training, education, and programs would pose significant setbacks at multiple levels. These actions and legislative measures set a dangerous and insidious precedent. ANA urges all academic and health care institutions to adopt and aggressively maintain policies, procedures, and practices that embrace inclusiveness, promote civility and mutual respect of nurses and their patients. |
