Disease Management
The VNA offers a home disease management program that provides strategies to help you learn how to control the impact of conditions such as diabetes, asthma, cancer and HIV/AIDS. Care is provided not only to help you understand your illness but also to help you achieve the best health possible while living with your disease.
VNA Telehealth Program
The VNA's Home Care Telehealth Program monitors your vital signs and symptoms via a machine that transmits the information to the VNA. Telehealth monitoring has been shown to improve the effectiveness of home care and to decrease unplanned emergency visits and hospitalizations.
