The picketing occurred after nurses and other workers — who are represented by the United Nurses and Allied Professionals Local 5098 — voted “no confidence” in leadership, and agreed to leave the option open for a strike if they can’t reach a contract agreement.
Workers also went on strike for three days on July 23. After a one-day lockout, they returned to their jobs July 27.
Both sides are slated to continue negotiations Aug. 8.
