Providence hospitals reached a tentative contract agreement with the health system’s leaders late Tuesday amid a strike that has lasted 26 days. The deal covers nearly 5,000 Providence nurses who walked off the job on Jan.

An apparent breakthrough in the nearly month-long strike at Providence hospitals was reached Tuesday night as both Providence officials and the Oregon Nurses Association announced a tentative deal at all eight locations affected.
