Some hospitals in New York City are rolling out emergency plans as 10,000 nurses move closer to striking. At least one hospital system is moving some newborns to other hospitals. DaveCarlinTV reports.

Mount Sinai Health System is transferring babies in some neonatal intensive care units to other hospital systems, diverting ambulances and postponing some elective surgeries.

"I'm glad we came before everything goes with a strike," said Francis Rosen, a patient visiting the Upper West Side hospital.
