Mount Sinai Hospital’s ICU is in chaos from the nursing strike, with some patients in dire need of more care as the skeletal staff struggles.
Matthew McDermottOver 7,000 nurses are out on strike at private hospitals.A source with the union, the New York State Nurses Association, told The Post on Tuesday that while “we bargained with Montefiore into the night, and we are back in bargaining with Montefiore today … Mt. Sinai still has no bargaining sessions scheduled, unfortunately.”
Montefiore said it has pitched new concessions in its latest round of negotiations, including sweetening nurses’ pay based on their experience.A couple who went to see their daughter Tuesday on Mount Sinai’s 11th floor, in its oncology unit, told The Post that their child is receiving enough care where she is.
But an emergency-room nurse on strike at the hospital said the situation had only been going from bad to worse in some units, forcing the union action.
