Supporting A Legacy of Care

With every donation to Visiting Nurse Health System, you become part of a powerful mission to ensure that every adult, regardless of age, income, or circumstance, receives the dignity of compassionate healthcare at home. This partnership supports Georgia’s most vulnerable seniors through home health, hospice, and aging services. Together, we are building a legacy of care that improves lives, strengthens communities, and honors the belief that every life deserves dignity.

Your support of Visiting Nurse’s programs and charitable care provides healthcare at home services not covered by insurance but are essential to the health, dignity, and stability of the people we serve. Your support will help in many ways, including the following:

  • Direct Patient Care: Home health, hospice, and private care visits
  • Community Bereavement Programs: Grief support services for families: Camp STARS, Resilience, end-of-life doula program, music therapy, and small group workshops.
  • Telehealth: Remote patient monitoring for high-risk cardiac and diabetic patients.
  • CAPABLE: Evidence-based model of support, developed by Johns Hopkins, to help older adults age safely and independently at home.

Thank you for supporting our mission “to improve the lives of those we serve.”
