NYC nurses launch largest hospital strike over pay, staffing and safety
TL;DR Summary
Nearly 15,000 New York State Nurses Association members walked out at Montefiore Medical Center, NewYork-Presbyterian and Mount Sinai—the biggest nursing strike in NYC history—demanding inflation-adjusted pay, stronger staffing protections, and new contract provisions on artificial intelligence and workplace violence. Hospitals say negotiations with mediators were limited and warn the demands would be costly amid federal health-care funding changes; state officials will monitor patient safety as hospitals deploy temporary staff and have spent more than $100 million preparing for the strike.
