Columbia Business School Professor Carri Chan spoke with Gothamist reporter Arun Venugopal about the implications of recent agreements reached during the New York City nurses’ strike. Chan explained that while negotiated gains may ease immediate pressures, they are unlikely to resolve deeper structural issues. She noted that many nurses remain overworked and hospitals continue to face significant financial and political constraints, suggesting that lasting improvements will require broader reforms in staffing models, funding, and care delivery.
