Worcester, Massachusetts, USA. 25 Sept. 2021. Day 202 of the Nurses’ strike at Saint Vincent Hospital. The strike by nurses represented by the Massachusetts Nurses Association (MNA) was called to demand better nurse-to-patient ratios. Saint Vincent, a 381 bed hospital in Worcester, MA, 47 miles (76km) west of Boston, is currently involved in the longest running nurses’ strike in Massachusetts History. Saint Vincent hospital was founded by the Catholic Sisters of Providence in 1893 and in 2013 was acquired by the Dallas based, for profit, Tenet Healthcare Corporation. On Friday, 24 Sept. 2021, Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker said about the ongoing strike, “The Commonwealth needs every available healthcare resource fully operational while we are responding to this pandemic.” Photo shows a MNA member among up to 100 other members and community supporters of the nurses walking the union picket line at the main entrance to the hospital.
