Baystate Franklin Nurses Reach Tentative Deal, Strike Averted
Original: Baystate Franklin Nurses Reach Tentative Agreement, Averting Strike and Securing Contractual Improvements to Help Ensure Safe Patient Care for the Community
Nurses at Baystate Franklin Medical Center have reached a tentative agreement with hospital management, canceling a planned strike. The deal includes contractual improvements that the nurses' union says will help ensure safe patient care for the Greenfield, Massachusetts community and surrounding area. The agreement follows negotiations over staffing and working conditions, and now typically heads to nurses for a ratification vote before it takes effect.
Why now: A last-minute labor deal at a community hospital averted a nurses' strike that would have disrupted local patient care.
