Indiana Regional Medical Center nurses authorize strike

Nurses at Indiana (Pa.) Regional Medical Center, represented by the Indiana Registered Nurses Association and Pennsylvania State Education Association-Healthcare Local No. 5120, voted Tuesday to authorize a strike, according to a TribLIVE report.

With the vote, the nurses cited outstanding issues in contract talks that have been ongoing since last fall.

A strike has not been scheduled, although Tuesday's vote authorizes the union to call one.

According to the report, nurses also picketed Tuesday, and intend to resume picketing May 13.
