Moorestown, N.J., August 19, 2025 – BAYADA Home Health Care (“BAYADA”), a nonprofit organization and one of the nation's largest providers of home health, personal home care, private duty nursing, and hospice services, today announced the start of a leadership transition that will conclude with current Chief Executive Officer (CEO) David Baiada moving into a new role on the BAYADA Board of Directors (“Board”) upon the appointment of the company’s next CEO.
The Board’s Succession Committee has initiated a comprehensive search for BAYADA’s next CEO—the first non-family member to lead the organization. As the search progresses, David will continue in his role as CEO and will serve as an advisor during the transition.
“Since joining the business more than 20 years ago, David has helped us grow in size and strength, while always putting The BAYADA Way® at the center of every decision,” said Mark Baiada, BAYADA’s Founder and Chairman. “As we celebrate our 50th anniversary, this transition is about the next chapter—the thoughtful continuation of a promise to protect our mission, preserve our values, and pass on our legacy with care.”
The announcement comes on the eight-year anniversary week of David’s appointment to CEO in 2017, which is also when BAYADA announced its transition to nonprofit status.
“Serving as CEO has been an incredible honor,” said David. “Together, we’ve grown stronger, strengthened our values, and deepened our commitment to helping people live safely at home with comfort, independence, and dignity.”
Under David’s leadership, BAYADA has more than doubled in size; restructured into specialized practices of care and invested in technology and clinical innovation. David also helped guide the organization through the global pandemic; expand its community-based services, and strengthen its nonprofit identity. Most importantly, David and his leadership teams have nurtured a culture deeply rooted in The BAYADA Way—the organization’s guiding values of compassion, excellence, and reliability.
“The Board is deeply grateful to David for his leadership and devotion to BAYADA’s mission,” said Teresa Carroll, Chair of the Board Succession Committee. “With David’s continued leadership during this transition, then as a Board member, and with our strong executive team in place, we are well positioned for continued success.”
