Three special purpose funds help the VNA to carry out its work:

Caring for children

VNA Nurse with patient

VNA Mobile Link van

Special Services for Children, Seniors and our Community.
      The VNA treats over 1,000 children annually by caring for new mothers and babies, uninsured mothers and children, and families coping with chronically ill, terminally ill or disabled children.
     As the public health provider in 13 towns on the Cape, the VNA provides health education, counseling, immunization, interpreter services and mobile health screenings.
     In response to the growing needs of an aging population, the VNA provides an array of senior-specific services, including some that are funded entirely through philanthropic support.

Palliative Care and Hospice.
      The VNA offers care and comfort, from diagnosis to pain management to end-of-life services that include continued support for the patient’s loved ones.

Training, Technology and Equipment.
      The VNA offers scholarships to individuals who cannot afford the training to become home health aides. The VNA also provides medical staff with education and training in specialty areas such as palliative care and diabetes.
      The success realized through the integration of laptop computers in patient care has led the VNA to the latest addition to their technology program - the telemedicine system.  A transformation in home-monitoring devices, the telemonitor uses portable equipment to monitor daily trends in patient health status and report that information back electronically to the VNA office for review.

Your generous support can make a difference in the quality of care for your family and your community.
