Inspira Health Network filed a state layoff notice affecting 105 home-care and hospice employees as it prepares for a joint venture with Bayada Home Health Care covering Cumerland, Gloucester, and Salem Counties.
Inspira spokesman Greg Potter said Thursday that the Inspira employees would be interviewed for Bayada jobs, but "there may be some who don't fit into the joint venture."
Potter said that the tax-exempt Inspira, which is in the midst of planning a new hospital near Rowan University, would attempt to find jobs within the Inspira network for those not hired by Bayada.
The Bayada-Inspira joint venture is expected to take effect in April.
Privately-held Bayada, which is based in Moorestown, in October announced a plan to take over the management of Temple Health at Home.
Temple refused last fall to say how many employees were affected by that change in management.
