Brookdale is in a working class neighbourhood. And plus you have to be careful everywhere. Even on the upper west side.

"No, Brookdale is not on strike they are holding demonstrations because their healthcare benefits are up in limbo. Some of the nurses were very angry and didn't show up to work so they needed to fill the spots with per diem nurses."

if you dont call that s strike i dont know what that was

You can't call a strike unless you give the facility 15 days notice. They are union members so what they did was NOT a strike.

I think we have to be sensitive to people who live in these places served by this hospital. If you have the choice of going elsewhere then lucky you. People don't choose to get sick and sometimes going to the nearest hospital isn't a choice. Yes, I will say this hospital is NOT the worst.
