Moral injury is betrayal. When nurses and health professionals are forced to practice below the standard they know patients deserve, and when policies and staffing decisions undermine safe care, that’s not burnout; it’s moral injury. And it demands policy change. Burnout is exhaustion. Moral injury is a systemic failure.

Reclaim the power of your voice at the Statehouse. Join nurses and health professionals from across Ohio to build awareness, connect moral injury to policy, and take action where decisions are made.

Obesity is a chronic disease, not a lifestyle choice. More than one-third of Ohioans are living with it, increasing their risk of heart disease, diabetes, and stroke. GLP-1 medications are evidence-based tools that improve outcomes and reduce long-term healthcare costs.

That’s why ONA supports expanding access, including Ohio House Bill 388, which would ensure GLP-1 coverage for state employees like nurses and health professionals at public hospitals such as the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center.

Patients deserve access. Health professionals deserve access. Ohio must prioritize evidence-based care.

On Wednesday, March 4, 2026, at 10:00 a.m., nurses, health professionals, and educators will gather at Levine Park in Cincinnati for the AFT National Day of Action. ✊

Members of the Ohio Nurses Association and partner unions are calling on lawmakers to reject legislation that would open schools, hospitals, colleges, and universities to immigration enforcement actions, creating fear and undermining trust in essential public institutions.

Hospitals must be safe places for care. Schools must be safe places to learn. Our communities deserve nothing less. ❤️

The Ohio Nurses Association has called on Ohio State University to remove billionaire Les Wexner’s name from campus buildings, including the Wexner Medical Center.

A newly unredacted 2019 FBI document connected to the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein listed Wexner with the term “co-conspirator.” While Wexner has not been charged and denies wrongdoing, ONA leaders say it’s time to take a firm stand.

Hospitals should reflect safety, integrity, and trust.
Nurses, health professionals, and community members are advocating for patients, survivors, and our community. 💜

It’s about accountability.
It’s about transparency.
It’s about creating safe spaces for healing.
