Code of Conduct

All participants of Nurse March Ohio are expected to abide by our Code of Conduct, both online and during in-person events that are hosted and/or associated with Nurse March Ohio.

The Pledge

In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, we pledge to make participation in our project and our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body size, disability, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, level of experience, nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.

The Standards

Examples of behavior that contributes to creating a positive environment include:

Using welcoming and inclusive language

Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences

Gracefully accepting constructive criticism

Referring to people by their preferred pronouns and using gender-neutral pronouns when uncertain

We also recognize that healthcare is a highly political topic as well. We will not condone bipartisan slurs/banter on this page.

Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants include:

Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, public or private harassment

Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or electronic address, without explicit permission

Not being respectful to reasonable communication boundaries, such as 'leave me alone,' 'go away,' or 'I’m not discussing this with you.'

The usage of sexualised language or imagery and unwelcome sexual attention or advances

Swearing, usage of strong or disturbing language

Demonstrating the graphics or any other content you know may be considered disturbing

Assuming or promoting any kind of inequality including but not limited to: age, body size, disability, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, nationality and race, personal appearance, religion, or sexual identity and orientation

Attacking personal tastes

Other conduct which you know could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a professional setting.

Violations of the Code of Conduct may be reported by sending an email to ohnursemarch@gmail.com.
