ADOs and Incentive Pay

 ADOs, ADOs, ADOs!

Surge is upon us, and the incidence of unsafe assignments and unsafe staffing are likely to rise. We have heard of concerning conditions, specifically in the Emergency Department. Please fill out ADOs. Otherwise, we have no official record and little to no ability to fight poor working conditions.

Today, 1/12/26, your new Nurse Rep, Kira Twiggs, will be on campus ready to help you fill out ADOs. The process is simple, as you are not required to fill out the entire form. We primarily need your name, your email, facility, unit, manager’s name and email address, date/time of incident, and a brief description of the event/concern. If your unit, at any point in the shift, was not staffed to the standards of your Unit Staffing Plan, please fill out an ADO.

You can file an ADO for a multitude of reasons. Use the following link to read more about ADOs and to access the ADO form: Staffing Complaint / ADO Form - WSNA

Incentive Pay—You might be entitled to it and not even know it!

Did you know that you can be eligible for incentive pay even if you were not notified via Everbridge?? If you were told otherwise, that is FALSE, and please reach out to your manager and/or payroll for correction. If you are still denied the incentive, then please reach out to your nurse rep, Kira, at ktwiggs@wsna.org.

               Pages 53-54 of your contract go into detail regarding Incentive Pay (access your contract here). For example, you could be eligible for Incentive Pay when picking up an extra shift then being floated to another unit:

Extra shift

In Unity,
Kira Twiggs, BSN, RN, CCRN
Nurse Rep (she/her)

Document unsafe conditions

If you find yourself in a situation that you believe creates unsafe conditions for patients or for you, you should complete a Staffing Complaint / ADO Form as soon as possible.

By completing the form, you will help make the problem known to management, creating an opportunity for the problem to be addressed. Additionally, you will be documenting the facts, which may be helpful to you later if there is a negative outcome.

WSNA also uses your ADO forms to track the problems occurring in your facility. When you and your coworkers take the important step of filling out an ADO form, you are helping to identify whether there is a pattern of unsafe conditions for you or your patients at your facilities. This information is used by your conference committee, staffing committee, and WSNA labor staff to improve your working conditions.

Representation rights

As a union member, you have the right to have a representative present in any meetings with management that could potentially lead to disciplinary action against you.

If called into a meeting with management, read the following to management when the meeting begins:

If this discussion could in any way lead to my being disciplined or terminated, I respectfully request that my union representative be present at this meeting. Without representation present, I choose not to participate in this discussion.

Find out more about this crucial right and how to exercise it to ensure your fair treatment and protection.
