Nurses at six Providence hospitals across the state who walked off the job last week returned to work Sunday but they still don’t have a contract and the two sides don’t have any negotiations scheduled.

More than 3,000 nurses went on strike Tuesday at Providence St. Vincent near Beaverton, Providence Newberg, Providence Willamette Falls in Oregon City, Providence Medford, Providence Hood River and Providence Milwaukie.
