Nurses Describe Fear on the Job as Bitter Strike Enters Fifth Day
The New York Times • • nation
Key Points:
- Five days into the New York City nurses' strike, only NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia Hospital has resumed negotiations with the nurses' union, but talks ended without a resolution.
- NewYork-Presbyterian labeled the union's proposals as "unreasonable" and indicated future negotiations would involve a mediator, emphasizing their commitment to safe staffing ratios.
- The other two hospital systems affected by the strike, Mount Sinai and Montefiore Medical Center, have not yet returned to the negotiating table, with Mount Sinai expressing hope for future discussions.
- Both sides appear entrenched, suggesting the strike may continue for an extended period without immediate progress.
