Nurses at University Medical Center New Orleans (UMCNO) in Louisiana will hold a strike for three days from Nov.11-13 to protest LCMC Health’s refusal to address nurses’ concerns about staff retention in on-going first contract bargaining. Nurses at UMCNO are represented by National Nurses Organizing Committee/National Nurses United (NNOC/NNU) and have delivered their required advanced notice for their work stoppage.
UMCNO nurses say their hospital is being managed in ways that hurt the ability to retain experienced healthcare workers, including nurses.
The strike will be held at University Medical Center New Orleans, 2000 Canal St. in New Orleans, La.
