WATCH: Nurses United for Health on GRITtv

The nurses at Temple University Health System are in their third week on the picket line. These nurses, who are a part of the union PASNAP, are on strike to protect their right to advocate for patients and ensure that there are enough nurses on the floor to properly care for patients.

Laura Flanders with GRITtv ran a feature story on the nurses strike at Temple University. Flanders also spoke with Karen Higgins of the Massachusetts Nurses Association about the national health care plan recently passed by congress. 

For more information on the nurses strike look to some of MMP's recent coverage, and also TempleWatch.org for regular updates.
