A meeting later is likely to see a deal in England agreed but nurses are still threatening strikes.
The government is expected to agree to give NHS staff in England their 5% pay increase at a key meeting later.
Unite, which is holding a series of local strikes this week, is the only major union other than nurses union the RCN to vote "no". Unlike last time, the RCN is holding a national ballot rather than a series of local workplaces ones. "It's a substantial increase to pay and something that will make a real difference when everyone is feeling the impact of inflation on their daily lives."
