The workers, part of the National Union of Healthcare Workers, are slated to take part in a one-day strike, according to the report. The hospital and workers have butted heads over salaries and benefits.

Hospital officials said they plan to have replacement workers in place so there are no disruptions to patient care during the strike, according to the report.
