Nurses on Strike

Nurses on Strike - Operating room nurses (IBODE) have gone on strike to protest a reform reducing their specialized 2-year training to just a few hours, allowing general nurses with less experience to perform their duties in Nice. They warn this poses safety risks for both nurses and patients. Local grievances at Nice's CHU hospital include new schedules, fewer rest days, and longer work hours, leading to an estimated 29 additional workdays per year.
