The New York State Nurses Association (NYSNA) sued Montefiore Medical Center in the Bronx, saying among other things that the hospital was ignoring requirements that healthcare workers receive an N95 respirator mask daily.
U.S. District Judge Jesse Furman in Manhattan on Friday granted Montefiore’s motion to dismiss the case, saying he lacked authority to address the nurses’ concerns.
But he urged both sides to “continue their efforts to reach an amicable resolution of their disputes.”
“Lives may hang in the balance, and the NYSNA nurses deserve as much.”
