PHILADELPHIA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--BAYADA Home Health Care, a leading not-for-profit home health care provider, is celebrating National Nurses Week to recognize and honor exceptional nurses for the indispensable and indefinable impact they make on all of us by gifting one nurse a much-deserved vacation experience to a destination of their choosing.
According to the 2020 National Nursing Workforce survey, nursing shortages have affected the nation’s estimated 5.25 million nurses, increasing fatigue and stress in work environments. That’s why this Nurses Week, BAYADA is hosting a national sweepstakes on NursesWeek.com to randomly select one nurse to win a customized getaway trip worth up to $2,500. In addition to the giveaway, NursesWeek.com features numerous wellbeing resources, free CE courses, a fun nursing quiz, free downloadable social materials, and so much more.
“Nurses are the backbone of our health care system and selfless in their service to patients, going above and beyond to deliver quality care with compassion and excellence. Their inspiring work throughout the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond deserves to be honored and celebrated,” said BAYADA Home Health Care CEO David Baiada. “We at BAYADA are thrilled to celebrate Nurses Week, giving nurses the recognition they deserve through a getaway of their choosing. We hope through this sweepstakes and week-long celebration, nurses will feel validated, valued, and appreciated.”
BAYADA offices will also be celebrating and honoring its home health care nurses at the local level in varying ways, such as through additional raffles, free meals, special gifts, virtual events, and more. BAYADA’s Nurses Week efforts are part of a larger initiative and commitment to recruit and retain nurses who share the organization’s vision of delivering care with compassion, excellence, and reliability.
