RotaCare is a nonprofit corporation formed for the purpose of providing free medical care to people who have the most need and the least access to medical services. It is a coalition of over 1,500 Rotarians, physicians, nurses, pharmacists, social workers, interpreters and other volunteers who provide free medical care to the medically under served in a collaborative effort with hospitals, clinics, community and social service organizations and service groups. RotaCare has 501(c)(3) nonprofit status as defined by the Internal Revenue Service. The RotaCare name is federally trademarked. Each clinic is run like an urgent medical care clinic. All are intended to treat pain and suffering, although each has a slightly different scope of service depending on the needs of the community it serves. The clinics each serve between 10 and 40 patients per clinic session. Sponsored by Rotary International and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.
