St. Charles Bend nurses plan to picket the hospital on January 21st if their union isn’t able to reach an agreement with management by then.

It’s not a strike or work stoppage; nurses would picket during their personal time.

The nurses are currently working under the terms of a contract that expired in July.

Some of nurses filed an unfair labor practice complaint against the hospital last month.
