Providence, bracing for massive health care strike, makes special plea to doctors set to join

Oregon’s Providence Health & Services has requested that federal mediators reexamine talks with physicians and other advanced clinical providers who are scheduled to go on strike the next week.

Following the announcement by 5,000 nurses, physicians, and other frontline healthcare professionals that they would be going on strike starting next Friday, the appeal was made. The open-ended walkout was announced Monday by the Oregon Nurses Association, which advocates for nurses and other healthcare workers at the Catholic non-profit health system. (In order to provide health institutions time to plan for disruptions in health services, health workers must issue a 10-day notice of strike.)
