(Pittsburgh, PA) UPMC nurses with Western Psychiatric Hospital in Pittsburgh are planning to strike for both increased staff and better levels of pay. These nurses assert that both closing beds and understaffing has affected the hospital’s ability to provide vital services. According to a news release from the union, Western Psychiatric Hospital has experienced staff turnover of about 100% over the past three years, with about 123 nurses exiting their jobs in that period, as well as the unanimous vote to authorize a strike this week.
