Hahnemann University Hospital nurses voted Wednesday in
favor of joining a union, the Pennsylvania Association of Staff Nurses and
Allied Professionals (PASNAP).
Voting in the National Labor Relations Board-supervised
election ended Wednesday evening.
Out of a bargaining unit of about 850 members, 516 voted
in favor of union representation and 117 opposed it.
In 2010, PASNAP and the California Nurses Association,
working together, were unsuccessful in unionizing Hahnemann nurses.
The 496-bed Center City hospital is owned by the Dallas
for-profit chain Tenet Healthcare Corp. and is affiliated with the Drexel
University College of Medicine.
