Healthcare workers have been overworked and understaffed during COVID-19. They understand the seriousness of COVID after working in the trenches for the last year and a half.

Healthcare providers know that patients have a right to bodily autonomy. Nursing ethics remind us to avoid paternalism, the idea that the provider knows what is best for the patient. Another ethical principle is nonmaleficence - do no harm. Healthcare providers should not TELL patients what to do, especially if there is any concern about potential harm.

Patients have the right to decide for themselves if they want the COVID vaccine.

Healthcare workers are patients too. We do not lose the right to self determination by choosing to be in the healthcare field. Healthcare providers must be able to chose for themselves if the COVID vaccine is right for them.

Hospitals must not mandate the COVID vaccine. It is unethical and un-American.

Healthcare workers must be allowed to make their own healthcare decisions regarding the COVID vaccine.

Supervisors at Valley Health do not have the same protections as employees for engaging in union activities and collective bargaining activity. If you are a supervisor at Valley Health, please contact [email protected] before signing.

By signing this petition, you are formally expressing your desire to support Valley Health Workers Association in resisting the mandate.

No to all vaccine mandates, medicine is between a person and THEIR doctor. Government and private business have no right to force medicine and private business has no right to enforce government edicts.

These care takers worked all last year during the COVID-19 pandemic without a vaccine but now all of a sudden if they don't get the vaccine, They aren't good enough? No, I don't think so.

Do not mandate! Freedom To choose! Thankful for so many that have been called into healthcare. You risk loosing sooo many wonderful people. Some I know as 20+ year employees. Please stand up!

Valley Health is already so understaffed that I had to return home from the ER after being advised to be admitted, yet they had no bed because they had floors shut down due to no staff. Be sensible and allow your employees to make decisions based on what is best for them!

Remember how masking, distancing, lock-downs, etc were only supposed to last two week and it exploded into over a year? No wonder there is skepticism over the vaccines. More so the requirement to take them.

Don’t tread on me! No one gets to make healthcare decisions for me or anyone else. I have the right to informed consent, I have the right to not be coerced into a decision. I stand up for my patients rights, I am a patient too I have rights. Stand up for our rights!!

It's no wonder Valley Health wants you to get the jab. They get MONEY for EVERY jab they give! PLUS they get MONEY for EVERY 'COVID' diagnosis and even MORE for every 'COVID' death. So far to date Valley Health has received almost THIRTY MILLION DOLLARS! https://www.statnews.com/2021/09/24/covid-19-relief-money-providers-in-your-state/
