The nurses are striking after recent negotiations between the hospital and union officials for a new contract were unsuccessful.

The 340 nurses at Shore Medical Center have been working without a contract since September 2014. Union and hospital officials have been at odds over the past year on issues such as salary, benefits and time off, according to the report.

The strike will start at 7 a.m., Oct. 8 and end at 6:59 a.m., Oct. 9.
