TL;DR Summary
About 1800 nurses at Providence Portland Medical Center, Providence Seaside Hospital, and Providence Home Health and Hospice went on strike due to issues with pay, working conditions, and patient care. Providence officials have secured a replacement workforce to take care of patients, but the striking nurses say there will still be a noticeable difference. The two sides have been negotiating a new contract for months, and once the strike ends, they plan to continue negotiations.
