Another 2-year-old-boy, who had left the small ground-floor day care center shortly after noon, was taken to a hospital after his mother noticed an unusual lethargy had replaced a toddler’s normal energy. “This crisis is real, and it is a real wake‑up call for individuals who have opioids or fentanyl in their homes,” Mayor Adams said. “The mere contact is deadly for an adult and it’s extremely deadly for a child.”

As Gen Z would say, she was bed rotting. Lounging in bed for more than a day or two is concerning and could point to different mental health issues, Gold said. This sort of behavior has been linked to symptoms of depression and anxiety, among other mental health illnesses, Gold added. Activities beyond bed rottingBed rotting can allow you to isolate yourself, ignore your feelings, and possibly prevent you from participating in self-care activities that can help you, Gold said. Therapy can help you learn new coping skills, get to the root cause of your bed rotting and determine if there is some mental health issue going on, Gold said.

NYSNA nurses walk off the job, to go on strike at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City, U.S. Jan. 9, 2023. Last year, six unions representing a total of 32,000 nurses launched strikes outside of hospital systems around the country, according to the Bureau of Labor and Statistics. Those strikes represented about a quarter of all the major strikes in the U.S. last year, an increase from the year before. The number of nurses working in the profession is starting to rebound to pre-pandemic levels, said Dave Auerbach, the director of research at the Massachusetts Health Policy Commission. April Hamilton, a 55-year-old food writer, cooking teacher and mother from Baton Rouge, La., will walk into her first class when that new nursing program starts Tuesday.
Thousands of New York City nurses who went on strike this week returned to work Thursday after reaching tentative deals with their hospitals. The agreements ended a three-day strike held by more than 7,000 nurses at Montefiore Medical Center in the Bronx and Mount Sinai Hospital in Manhattan. The New York State Nurses Association and the two hospitals confirmed the agreements early Thursday morning.
Two New York City hospitals have reached a tentative contract agreement with thousands of striking nurses that ends this week’s walkout that disrupted patient care, officials announced Thursday. Each has over 1,000 beds and 3,500 or more union nurses. Nurses for both hospitals were to return to work Thursday morning, the union said. “Our bargaining team has been working around the clock with NYSNA’s leadership to come to an agreement,” Montefiore said in a statement. “Our proposed agreement is similar to those between NYSNA and eight other New York City hospitals.

REUTERS/Andrew KellyJan 12 (Reuters) - A strike involving over 7,000 nurses at two New York City hospitals has ended after three days, as they reached tentative deals with hospitals over staffing levels, the New York State Nurses Association (NYSNA) said on Thursday. Nurses at Montefiore Medical Center in the Bronx and Mount Sinai Hospital in Manhattan will go back to work Thursday morning after reaching an agreement for "enforceable safe staffing ratios", the NYSNA said in a statement. "Through our unity and by putting it all on the line, we won enforceable safe staffing ratios at both Montefiore and Mount Sinai where nurses went on strike for patient care," said NYSNA President Nancy Hagans. The nurses went on strike on Monday after contract negotiations stalled over pay and staffing levels, a move that caused Montefiore to reschedule all elective surgeries and procedures and postpone appointments at ambulatory locations.
New York CNN —A nurses strike at two private New York City hospitals has come to an end after 7,000 nurses spent three days on the picket line. The New York State Nurses Association union reached tentative deals with Mount Sinai Health System and Montefiore Health System. But the union said the tentative deal will help put more nurses to work and allow patients to receive better care. The union representing the nurses had approved an offer of 19% pay hikes at other New York hospitals, avoiding a strike with tens of thousands of other nurses. But the nurses at the two hospitals that went on strike said the pay raises weren’t enough to solve staffing shortages.
The strike comes after late-night bargaining failed to produce tentative agreements, the union said. More than 7,000 nurses at two New York City hospitals went on strike Monday after contract talks broke down over pay and staffing levels. Roughly 3,500 nurses at Montefiore Medical Center in the Bronx and approximately 3,600 nurses at Mount Sinai Hospital in Manhattan walked off the job as of 6 a.m., according to the New York State Nurses Association, which represents the striking workers.
Nurses at two facilities within Mount Sinai's health care system tentatively agreed to contracts Sunday, according to an announcement from the New York State Nurses Association, the largest union representing registered nurses in the state, but negotiations continued at its flagship hospital. The New York State Nurses Association had threatened to strike at all of the affected hospitals at the same time, but other hospitals reached agreements with the union ahead of the deadline. The New York State Nurses Association and Mount Sinai did not immediately respond to overnight requests for comment. "This exact wage proposal has also been offered to NYSNA for nurses at The Mount Sinai Hospital. "We hope they will similarly rescind their strike notice at The Mount Sinai Hospital."

Jan 9 (Reuters) - Thousands of nurses at two New York City hospitals went on strike on Monday after contract negotiations stalled over pay and staffing levels, a move that caused one of the facilities to postpone procedures and appointments. The walkout involves more than 7,000 nurses at Montefiore Medical Center in the Bronx and Mount Sinai Hospital in Manhattan, the New York State Nurses Association said in a statement. "These nurses are dedicated professionals who provide quality patient care under unimaginable conditions," New York State AFL-CIO president Mario Cilento said. Montefiore Medical Center also said it was committed to create over 170 new nursing positions. Since beginning contract negotiations four months ago, the union had been able to reach agreements or new contracts for nurses at seven other New York City hospitals.

New York CNN —The 7,000 nurses who went on strike in New York Monday say the 19% pay hike that hospital management offered them was never the main issue. And so thousands of nurses went on strike with no end in sight. The overall effect on the New York hospital system appear to be minor so far, according to a city official. While the union and Montefiore are due back at the bargaining table Monday afternoon, no new talks are scheduled as of midday for Mount Sinai. The union says Mount Sinai and Montefiore have severe staffing problems and need to do more than the others to improve patient care and work conditions.
