Visiting Nurse Association (VNA) is a nonprofit healthcare organization that provides home health care services and community health programs across the United States. Founded in the late 19th century, VNA organizations operate independently in different regions while sharing a common mission of delivering medical care and support services to patients in their homes. VNA employs registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech therapists, and home health aides who provide skilled medical care, rehabilitation services, and personal care assistance. The organization specializes in post-acute care, helping patients transition from hospital to home, managing chronic conditions, and providing end-of-life care through hospice services. Key services offered by VNA include wound care, medication management, disease education, physical therapy, and personal care assistance. The organization also provides community health services such as immunization clinics, health screenings, and wellness education programs. VNA works closely with physicians, hospitals, and other healthcare providers to ensure coordinated care delivery. VNA organizations are typically Medicare and Medicaid certified and accept most major insurance plans. The organization often provides care on a sliding fee scale and through charitable care programs to ensure services remain accessible to all community members regardless of their ability to pay.
