WILKES-BARRE, LUZERNE COUNTY- Nurses at Wilkes-Barre General Hospital will begin walking a picket line Monday.
The informational picketing is not a strike and will not interfere with the nurses work schedules. ItŐs meant to bring awareness to the declining number of registered nurses on staff.
They say the ratio to patients can be stressful and sometimes dangerous. The number of patients in the emergency room has increased.
Wilkes-Barre General nurses say they will picket each Monday for the rest of the month. | |
