ANA President Mary Foley and Susan Bianchi-Sand, director of its labor arm, United American Nurses, joined St. Vincent nurses on the picket line in Worcester, Mass. on April 6. Further, ANA has sent letters to both the CEO of St. Vincent and to the CEO of Tenet Health, which owns the hospital, demanding that they settle the strike.
In addition, letters of support have been sent to the striking nurses.
St. Vincent nurses have been on strike since March 31 and Nyack nurses have been out for more than 100 days -- since late December. ANA encourages you to support the nurses by writing similar letters and by contributing to the strike funds.
