As we celebrate July 4th, we honor the spirit of independence that defines our nation—and also the dignity and freedom we strive to preserve every day for the people we serve. For 76 years, Visiting Nurse Health System has stood alongside Georgia families, helping patients remain in the place they cherish most: home.
Our work in home health and hospice care is rooted in compassion, choice, and respect for every individual’s journey. On this Independence Day, we recognize not only our country’s freedom, but also the personal freedoms we protect—by delivering care that helps people live and die with dignity, surrounded by those they love.
From our family to yours, Happy Fourth of July.

Today we pause to honor Juneteenth - a powerful reminder of resilience, freedom, and the continued pursuit of equity. At Visiting Nurse Health System, we recognize this day as more than a historic milestone, more so a call to action to listen, learn, and continue building a community where dignity and compassion are extended to all. Having provided care into the homes of Georgians for 76 years, our mission is rooted in the belief that each individual deserves equal access to quality health care. On this Juneteenth, we reaffirm that belief. Thank you to our community members, supporters and healthcare partners who help us serve with heart and humanity each day. #Juneteenth #EquityInCare #VisitingNurseHealthSystem #CommunityCare #hospiceatlanta
