california
MASSACHUSETTS -- To protest dangerous staffing conditions at their hospital, registered nurses at Quincy Medical Center on April 11 went on a one-day strike, the first nurses' strike at a Greater Boston hospital in more than 25 years and one authorized by the most overwhelming strike vote by nurses in Massachusetts history. Quincy Medical Center is run by Steward Health Care System, a for-profit hospital chain owned by the private equity firm Cerberus Capital Management.
