(Providence, RI) -- Nurses at Rhode Island Hospital and Hasbro Children's Hospital are looking to the future now that a three-day strike has ended and they are back to work. Lifespan is agreeing to resume negotiations on a new contract on August 8th after a "cooling-down period" but local United Nurses and Allied Professionals president Linda McDonald says that's not soon enough. McDonald says if the next round of negotiations does not result in a new deal, another strike will be authorized.
