Bayada Nurses employees have a deep commitment to supporting a variety of community
events and humanitarian efforts. As individuals and collectively, employees offer
their time and talents to support local charities as well as national and international
relief efforts.
Bayada Nurses for Haiti
Bayada Nurses is proud to support relief efforts in Haiti by sponsoring experienced
registered nurses to travel to Haiti and work there for a minimum of 4 weeks. Interested
nurses do not have to be employees of Bayada. All experienced nurses are welcome
to apply.
Bayada will cover the cost of all travel, living expenses, and inoculations. This
effort is being coordinated with
International Medical Corps (IMC), a humanitarian, non-profit organization
that has been sending medical personnel to assist with relief efforts since 1984,
including Bayada's efforts in Kosovo
in 1999.

The Bayada Regatta
Bayada Nurses is especially
proud to be the sole corporate sponsor of the Bayada Regatta, an annual adaptive
rowing competition that has been held on the Schuylkill River in Philadelphia since
1981. The Bayada Regatta is the oldest adaptive rowing competition in the world.
Hosted by Philadelphia Adaptive Rowing (PAR) formerly known as the Philadelphia
Rowing Program for the Disabled (PRPD), the event attracts some of the top physically
and developmentally disabled rowers from around the world.
In addition to sponsorship,
Bayada Nurses works with PAR to organize the event, which is staffed entirely by
volunteers. Bayada is proud to support PAR in making the sport of rowing available
to everyone and to work to increase awareness of the therapeutic and rehabilitative
benefits of rowing.
