NYSNA nurses at 7 NYC safety-net hospitals in Brooklyn and Staten Island rescinded their 10-day strike notice.
The New York State Nurses Association on Wednesday said an agreement has been reached with nurses, who had threatened to strike over pay and healthcare benefits grievances.
The seven hospitals include:
- Flushing Hospital Medical Center
- Maimonides Medical Center
- One Brooklyn Health’s Interfaith Medical Center
- One Brooklyn Health’s Kingsbrook Jewish Medical Center
- The Brooklyn Hospital Center
- Wyckoff Heights Medical Center
- Richmond University
The NYSNA plans to hold a press conference on the negotiations at 11 a.m.
Nurses at five other NYC hospitals and three
Northwell Health hospitals on Long Island are still set to strike on Jan. 12 if talks fail.
