The Association of University Registered Nurses and Oregon Health & Science University management are proud to announce the successful conclusion of 10 months of diligent and passionate negotiations, resulting in a tentative agreement for a new three-year contract. 
 
This contract stands as the cornerstone for fostering a robust, healthy, and secure nursing workforce, enabling us to deliver top-notch care to our patients and the communities of the Pacific Northwest. The details of this tentative agreement will be shared soon, followed by a ratification vote by the AURN members. 
 
This is a huge accomplishment, and we appreciate the time and efforts of everyone involved, including the nearly 3200 nurses who are the heart of this contract. 
 
In addition, the teams mutually agreed to an extension of the Expansion of Critical Need Incentive (ECNI) Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) through the ratification of the new contract. 
 
Jointly on behalf of, 
 
The AURN Bargaining Team and OHSU Management’s Bargaining Team
