The New York Nurses Association says they still plan on striking Jan. 9 after negotiations with hospitals have fallen through, the organization revealed.
Additionally, since the COVID-19 pandemic nurses underscore that they have been on the front lines bearing the brunt of the disease both mentally and physically. They cite suffering from long COVID, as well as the trauma induced by the deadly virus has left them exhausted. With this in mind, NYSNA calls treatment from hospital management nothing short of disrespectful.
While the strike is set to take place next week, one hospital is pushing to make a change. Hagans congratulated New York Presbyterian Hospital, which includes 4,000 NYSNA nurses, after reaching a tentative agreement on Dec. 31, hours before their contract expired. This agreement includes better staffing ratios in the emergency room. It is now up to the nurses to vote on whether they will ratify the new contract.
