MADISON, Wis. – UnityPoint Health-Meriter nurses are pushing for changes in their contracts, saying if push comes to shove, they’ll give a 10-day notice for a strike.
SEIU Healthcare Wisconsin, the union representing the Meriter nurses, said the nurses voted nearly unanimously to authorize the issuing of a strike notice.
“It’s not something we want to do or take lightly, but it is something that’s frankly an option if we absolutely have to,” said Joe Maginn, a registered nurse in the ER who’s worked at Meriter Hospital for 21 years.
