(Pittsburgh, PA) Contract negotiations are now underway between UPMC Magee Women’s Hospital and its nurses for the first time ever. These negotiations between 900 nurses and advanced practitioners and UPMC were being settled both yesterday and Wednesday. The nurses are also launching an online survey where they are asking questions to the public to tell them about their personal experiences at hospitals and the contract proposals will be shaped by that information.
