Unionized nurses plan to strike indefinitely in Catalonia from Dec. 12. The Infermeres de Catalunya union will lead the strike demanding better working conditions for the nurses in the region. Demonstrations are possible near public healthcare facilities.

Interruptions to healthcare staffing will likely prompt delays and cancellations of appointments and other healthcare services. Security personnel will likely deploy to monitor any demonstrations that may occur. Violence is not anticipated.
