The Royal College of Nursing is due to unveil the results of its ballot, which ended last week, in the next few days.
The final results are being counted but RCN sources say a large majority of nurses have voted in favour of action in a dispute over pay.
The RCN had recommended to its 300,000 members that they walk out. If strikes take place, they would affect non-urgent but not emergency care. BBC News
