Geriatric Care Management
The VNA offers care for seniors who wish to age gracefully at home – or wherever they call home.
Through our Geriatric Care Management service, VNA nurses, social workers and geriatric experts help people and their families to maximize the independence, safety and quality of life of elders and others who need assistance with daily living. We know that when care is needed to remain in your home, the medical, physical, social, emotional and financial issues can be time consuming and often overwhelming to manage.
