Nurses deserve to know what’s happening in their own building.
The Bedside Shift Report exists to make sure they do.
We’re rank-and-file nurses at NYP Lower Manhattan, and we built this to cut through the silence — to put your contract in plain English, track the staffing fights that affect every shift, explain your rights before you need them, and give every nurse a voice that doesn’t get filtered through management or buried in a group chat.
Information is power. This is where we share it.
One hospital. Many units. One voice.
The Bedside Shift Report is a rank-and-file nurse communication space. Not an official statement of CWA Local 1104 or NYP management.

The Bedside Shift Report — NYP Lower Manhattan Nurses
Voice of NYP Lower Manhattan Nurses — By Nurses, For Nurses.
Our Staffing. Our Record.
Issue 001 lays it out plain: what we’ve documented, what management owes us, and what the contract actually says. From the CSC’s no-consensus vote on the 2027 staffing plans — and what §2805-t requires next — to Weingarten rights to Albany’s pending bills. Written by nurses, for nurses, with the receipts attached.
One Tap. Done.

⚠️ COMPLIANCE & REPRISAL GUARDRAIL: Protecting your license is our priority. Under HIPAA and hospital rules, never type patient names, initials, medical record numbers (MRNs), or room numbers into any tracking form. Keep submissions focused strictly on operational metrics (ratios, grid deficits, missed breaks, and ancillary staff shortages).
