Mount Sinai Hospital is investigating the death of a 4-month-old baby in its neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) during the recent nurses' strike, according to a report.
The hospital began to formally look into the tragic January death of the infant, who had a severe heart condition, last week, according to a document reviewed by Gothamist. Staff did not notice the baby's low blood count for hours before the January 11 death, which happened on the third day of the strike, according to the outlet's sources.
