ROCHESTER, N.Y. — The union that represents nearly 900 nurses and allied professionals at Rochester General Hospital will vote on Wednesday about whether to go on strike. Voting runs from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. at the Hampton Inn at 1323 East Ridge Road. The Rochester Union of Nurses and Allied Professionals (RUNAP) is considering going on strike because it still hasn’t negotiated a deal with hospital management on wages, staffing, benefits, and other work conditions.
