New York City’s Mount Sinai Hospital is continuing to move infants out of intensive care units to other area hospitals, is diverting ambulances to other facilities and postponing elective surgeries and heart surgeries ahead of a planned nursing strike Monday. In a statement late Saturday, the hospital said it has been negotiating “in good faith” with the nursing union, the New York State Nurses Association, on a new contract.
The NYSNA hit back Saturday at comments from Mount Sinai, which said Friday it was transferring infants in its neonatal intensive care units to other area hospitals because of the strike notice, adding the hospital was dismayed by the union’s “reckless” actions. “As a labor and delivery nurse who helps mothers to bring babies into this world, I find it outrageous that Mount Sinai would compromise care for our NICU babies in any way.
A nursing strike. And your medical bills have nowhere to go but up.
Nurse's went from heros to zeros. Bring back the Nurses who refused the experimental vaccine, with back pay!
