Nurses and service workers at Providence Sacred Heart Medical Center in Spokane are holding a vote this week on whether to strike.

Negotiations are continuing, but Darryl Johnson, the grievance officer for the Washington State Nurses Association, says the union objects to cuts the hospital proposes to make to the nurses' extended illness benefits, or EIT, bank, which accrue over the years.
