Last Group of Striking NYC Nurses Reaches Tentative Deal With Hospital
More than 4,000 nurses at NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia held out for a better deal and stayed on strike.
“This has been a long, hard fight, but we are proud of what we achieved,” said Beth Loudin, a nurse and local union leader who led the union’s bargaining committee at New York-Presbyterian Hospital. “With the strength of our nurses and the support of our community and allies, we showed the hospital that nurses will not compromise on our patients’ care.”
