"While NYSNA nurses are fighting for safe staffing, reverse staff and service cuts that harm patient care, stronger safety and workplace violence protections, guardrails on the use of artificial intelligence in patient care, and fair wages and benefits to recruit and retain enough nurses for quality care, the total compensation for Montefiore, Mount Sinai, and NewYork-Presbyterian CEOs, including salaries, benefits, and perks, increased by over 54% from 2020 to 2023 according to 990 tax filings"
"At a rally outside Maimonides Health in Boro Park on Nov. 13 - the health care provider is one of the private-sector hospitals - NYSNA nurses and local pols mobilized, demanding that safety-net hospitals such as Maimonides ensure safe staffing and protect healthcare in New York ahead of the Trump administration's impending healthcare cuts. New York could lose $4.9 billion in federal funding for the healthcare system and likely see an increase in the number of uninsured New Yorkers."
NYSNA nurses continued a second week of rallies across New York City demanding safe staffing, reversal of staff and service cuts, stronger safety and workplace violence protections, guardrails on use of artificial intelligence in patient care, and fair wages and benefits. Approximately 20,000 NYSNA nurses at 12 private hospitals face a contract that expires on Dec. 31, 2025. CEO total compensation at Montefiore, Mount Sinai, and NewYork-Presbyterian rose by over 54% from 2020 to 2023, while Mount Sinai invested $100 million in an AI facility. A Nov. 13 rally at Maimonides warned of potential $4.9 billion federal funding losses and more uninsured New Yorkers. Nurses at Maimonides reported chronic understaffing and said additional nurses are needed to provide proper patient care.
