New York nurses rallied Wednesday on the steps of City Hall over what they are calling a staffing crisis in city hospitals.
The noon gathering of NYSNA members came directly before a City Council oversight hearing on the state of nursing in NYC, including what many feel is a dangerously low level of nurses on staff. Nurses at the rally charged that the issue is a literal matter of life and death that puts patients at risk due to the lack of hands on deck.
