Nursing home workers at 24 PA facilities, 1 in Butler County, vote send strike notice
Nursing home workers from 24 nursing homes across the state — including one in Butler County — voted to send Unfair Labor Practice strike notices Monday.
According to a press release from Service Employees International Union, the strike comes after “failures to provide information about agency staffing and costs, and for not bargaining in good faith.”
The Grove at Harmony, located at191 Evergreen Mill Rd. in Harmony, is the only Butler County based facility included in the list of 24 nursing homes by SEIU.
The strike notice comes from three of the biggest chains in the state, Guardian Healthcare and two chains owned by Mordy Lahasky – Comprehensive Healthcare and Priority Healthcare.
