The New England Health Care Employees Union has called off their strike against nursing homes planned for May 1st. Unions are requesting for a 4% raise for all nursing home caregivers and a reassessment of contracts to account for inflationary costs. Albeit in the middle of negotiations, the governor has acted in good faith by proposing additional state funding for nursing homes. Though it is unclear whether or not additional funding will be provided, potential work stoppage has been deferred for two weeks.
