Nurses Strike Over Dangerous Understaffing | Baltimore News

Nurses at Ascension Saint Agnes Hospital in Baltimore staged a full-day strike— their second in two years— demanding safer staffing levels after years of negotiations. Frustrated by management’s refusal to address dangerous understaffing, they’re forced to float to unfamiliar units, risking patient and staff safety. Despite the hospital’s reported profits and recent wage hikes, nurses insist the real issue is prioritizing productivity over care. The union’s refusal to pay dues is cited by management as the main obstacle, but nurses remain united, ready to keep fighting for a contract that protects both patients and their own well-being.
