Nearly 15,000 NYSNA nurses from Mount Sinai Hospital, Mount Sinai Morningside and West, Montefiore, and NewYork-Presbyterian are on strike today because greedy hospital management have given frontline nurses no other choice.

Mount Sinai nurses spoke to DocumentedNY to share their experience facing workplace violence and retaliation after speaking out for workplace safety.

Nurses don't want to strike, but we're ready to do whatever it takes to win a fair contract.

Patient safety is nurses' #1 concern.

It’s irresponsible for hospitals to force nurses on strike and rely on inadequate contingency plans to care for patients.

We don't want replacement nurses here, we want a fair contract now!

When we fight, we win! Yesterday, NYSNA nurses at The Brooklyn Hospital Center and Wyckoff Heights Medical Center have reached full tentative agreements.

Nurses are showing up in force. 💪

Earlier today, NYSNA nurses from the wealthiest private sector hospitals held an emergency solidarity action outside the League of Voluntary Hospitals to demand that the city's richest hospitals protect patient and nurse safety.

Union Strong!

NYSNA nurses are receiving widespread support from 45 labor unions, representing over 2.5M workers! Check out the latest open letter supporting union nurses.

Billion-dollar hospitals shouldn’t cut corners on care. They must invest in nurses and patients– not untested AI. Thank you @sengonzalezny.bsky.social for penning this Crain's op-ed in support of Mount Sinai nurses!

Nurses at Flushing Medical Center and The Brooklyn Hospital Center have made progress during bargaining!

Currently, nearly 16k nurses at 5 New York City hospitals and nearly 1k nurses at 3 Long Island hospitals are still set to strike on Jan 12 – in just 5 days.
January 7, 2026 at 7:58 PM
BREAKING​: NYSNA nurses at 5 safety-net hospitals in Brooklyn and Staten Island made major progress towards settling fair contracts!

More than 16,700 nurses at 7 private sector hospitals are still planning to strike beginning Jan. 12, unless they can reach fair contracts first.

Nurses care for New York and risk their health to do so.

Taking away nurses' healthcare benefits puts nurses', their families' and patients' health at risk.

Nurses like Christine urge hospital executives at NewYork-Presbyterian to continue nurses' healthcare and negotiate a fair contract now!

ICYMI: On Jan. 2, NYSNA nurses from 12 private sector hospitals delivered their 10-day strike notice! Nurses don't want to strike on Jan. 12 but are ready to do whatever it takes to protect patient and nurse safety. #FairContractNow #NursesCareforNY
January 5, 2026 at 9:25 PM
Shoutout to the NYC private nurses who delivered strike notices to management today!

Nurses don't want to strike, but are ready if management refuses to negotiate a fair contract that protects patient care.
January 2, 2026 at 10:09 PM
BREAKING: Today, NYSNA nurses at 12 NYC private sector hospitals and 3 Long Island Northwell Health hospitals delivered 10-day notices to strike. NYSNA will continue to bargain between now and January 12th in the hopes of reaching agreements.
January 2, 2026 at 5:44 PM
Contracts at 12 private sector hospitals in NYC expired at midnight last night.

All 12 hospitals have yet to negotiate fair contracts.

Stay tuned.

Happy New Year! Thank you NYSNA nurses and healthcare professionals for all your courage and strength this past year. We look forward to more victories for nurses, patients and our community in 2026!

Nurses experience some of the highest rates of workplace violence while on the frontlines. However, NYC hospitals are refusing to agree to new rates or continue existing healthcare benefits.

Nurses like Jennifer are speaking up because patient care comes first. It's time hospitals like NewYork-Presbyterian prioritize patients—not profits.

Over 97% of NYC private-sector nurses voted to authorize a strike, not because they want to, but because hospitals won’t commit to safe staffing.
Stand with NYC nurses fighting for fair contracts and safe patient care for every New Yorker.

NYC Mount Sinai nurses are united! Last night, Mount Sinai nurses from Main Hospital, Morningside, and West gathered in the cold for a vigil in solidarity with the Main nurses who were unfairly disciplined for speaking out for health and safety at the hospital!
