Worcester Medical Center nurses concluded their six-week strike against mandatory overtime as their contract was ratified by a vote of 358 to 5. The Worcester Medical Center and its parent company, Tenet Healthcare Corp., had demanded that nurses work an additional eight hours of overtime on top of a regular eight-hour shift.
