It was an exciting week for BAYADA Education partner Cooper University Health Care. The BAYADA Scholars are already sharing glowing reviews of their clinical experiences at Cooper. We look forward to a bright future creating exceptional clinical experiences for the next generation of extraordinary nurses, together.
Today was a great day in Cooper University Health Care and Camden history as we broke ground on the first phase of our $3 billion expansion project in Camden. When complete, Cooper’s “Project Imagine” will mark the largest building investment in Camden County's history. George Norcross III, chairman of Cooper University Health Care’s Board of Trustees, and Cooper Co-CEOS Kevin O’Dowd, JD, and Anthony J. Mazzarelli, MD, JD, MBE, were joined at the groundbreaking ceremony by New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy and former Governors Chris Christie, Jon Corzine, James McGreevey, and Tom Kean, and a special appearance by television icon, South Jersey native, and long-time Cooper supporter Kelly Ripa, underscoring the project's significance to the state and region. "Cooper’s investment of $3 billion for its future growth will be a transformative investment in the future of Camden and South Jersey,” said George E. Norcross III, chairman of Cooper University Health Care’s Board of Trustees. “This project reinforces Cooper’s long-standing commitment to delivering extraordinary health care, driving economic growth, and creating new opportunities for the people of the City of Camden and the region. Cooper’s success, and the Camden renaissance, could not have happened without the strong and uninterrupted support of Governors Kean, McGreevey, Corzine, Christie and Governor Murphy – thank you for all you have done.” Read more: https://bit.ly/4hdPwbA
