“It is a great day for the Home Care nurses here at HealthEast,” said Kelly Rogalsky, one of 55 RNs working in HealthEast’s Home Care program. “We’re excited to join MNA and have formal union representation. We look forward to bargaining with our employer for a contract that ensures the well-being and safety of our patients and allows us to give our patients the best quality of care possible.”

HealthEast’s Home Care program provides at-home care and nursing for patients across the Twin Cities.

“We’re very excited to welcome the HealthEast Home Care nurses to our association,” said MNA President Linda Hamilton, RN. “For more than 105 years, great nurses like those from HealthEast have helped make the Minnesota Nurses Association a leader in nursing practice, education and patient safety.”

Founded in 1905, the Minnesota Nurses Association represents more than 20,000 nurses across the state. More than 12,000 MNA RNs in the Twin Cities are in the midst of contract bargaining with six different Twin Cities hospital systems, including HealthEast.
