Home Healthcare Overview
Visiting Nurse brings your healthcare… and peace of mind… home.
Home Healthcare Overview
Visiting Nurse Health System is a true leader in the home healthcare industry and we offer a variety of home healthcare services in Atlanta. After surgery or an illness, it’s wonderful to receive discharge orders from the hospital and be headed to the warmth and familiarity of your own home. But this transition can also be fraught with uncertainty and quite frankly, it can be a bit scary. The solution is to bring competent short-term care and expertise home with you. You can when your physician orders home health services and you choose Visiting Nurse.
We understand how to make the transition from hospital to home quite seamless. The care begins with a Visiting Nurse Transition Liaison who will answer all of your questions and assess you and your family’s needs. This professional will explain what we can provide and when that care will start. He or she will also discuss cost and can provide essential information to the insurance company to help sort out your benefits. And with Visiting Nurse, you have assistance even when nurses or therapists aren’t in your home. You will have access to a RN 24 hours a day, every day . Visiting Nurse also involves those you designate as your caregivers to ensure you have the support needed when our staff is not in your home.
Visiting Nurse Home Healthcare Services include:
- Nursing
- Physical therapy
- Occupational therapy
- Speech therapy
- Home health aides
- High-risk patient management
- Advanced wound care
- Telehealth access

“Part of hospice is taking care of the patient while they’re here, but also the family after the patient’s gone.” – Lanise Shortell, RN CHPPN, CPLC, Pediatric Hospice Nurse

Nurses deserves a little fun too! 💙
In honor of Nurses Day, Week, and Month, our Home Health Nurses celebrated last night with the "From Scrubs to Strikes: Nurses Night at the Lanes" themed Cinco de Mayo bowling night!
A great time was had by all with some good fun, lots of laughs, and some friendly competition on the lanes!
Great chance to step away from the road, connect as a team, and celebrate the incredible care our nurses deliver every day in homes across our community.
Grateful for this amazing Home Health team of nurses! Please know what you do matters, and it shows every single day.
