About 2,000 Bay Area nurses reached tentative agreement in a contract dispute with six hospitals, averting a strike threatened to start Monday. Provisions of the new agreement will not be released until after a vote by the membership on Wednesday, a spokeswoman for the California Nurses Assn. said. A previous two-year contract for registered nurses working at Children’s, St. Mary’s, Mt. Zion, Marshal Hale and St. Francis hospitals in San Francisco and Seaton Medical Center in Daly City had expired July 1. Negotiations on a new contract have been under way since May 21.
