Nurses Picket at HCA's Central Florida Regional Over Staffing Levels

Nurses at HCA's Central Florida Regional Hospital in Sanford, Fla., are picketing over staffing levels, according to an Orlando Sentinel report.

The nurses, members of National Nurses United and the National Nurses Organizing Committee-Florida, claim they have been assigned to other units that are under-staffed without being trained for work in a new specialty, according to the report.

The hospital has not responded to the staffing allegations but has been bargaining with the union since April of this year over a new contract.
