A young cancer patient at one of the remaining New York City hospitals where nurses are on strike says he misses his regular caregivers. Logan Coyle is a 9-year-old boy battling advanced liver cancer at NewYork-Presbyterian’s children’s hospital in Manhattan. Two other major hospital systems reached tentative deals to end the strike on Monday. Those proposals, if approved by union members, would see nurses return to work by Saturday. Negotiations at NewYork Presbyterian have progressed slower. The hospital says it has agreed to a proposal from mediators that includes many things the union has sought. But the union says there are no plans yet for negotiations to resume.

Nurses and two major hospital systems in New York City have reached a deal to end a nearly monthlong strike over staffing levels, workplace safety and other issues. The tentative agreement announced Monday involves Montefiore and Mount Sinai hospital systems. Nurses remain on strike at NewYork-Presbyterian. The walkout began Jan. 12. The hospitals scrambled to hire legions of temporary nurses to fill in during a demanding flu season. The three-year deal still needs to be approved by union members. It affects roughly 10,500 of the some 15,000 nurses on strike at some of the city’s biggest private, nonprofit hospitals.
