Unionized nurses at Brigham and Women's Hospital are voting on a final contract proposal after months of negotiations. This vote occurs as the hospital's parent company, Mass General Brigham, implements layoffs and cost-cutting measures. The nurses previously postponed a strike that could have significantly disrupted patient care. If the offer is rejected, the union may reconsider an indefinite strike. Union leaders have expressed dissatisfaction with the proposal, particularly regarding wage increases.
