How would a person refer a friend, relative or himself/herself to VNA?
You or someone you know may benefit from home health services; however, you may not be sure of the types of care available through VNA. A simple phone call will provide you with the necessary information about VNA programs and services that are available in Omaha, Council Bluffs and surrounding communities. A VNA nurse will assess the need for home health services and, in consultation with your physician, develop a home care plan. If a patient requires home care following hospitalization, VNA staff will also coordinate services with the hospital discharge planner and the patient’s physician. Insurance or Medicare will usually cover most home care expenses. Community funds are available on a limited basis to cover the cost of care for those who cannot afford to pay. VNA home health services can be requested by calling: (402) 342-5566 or (800) 456-8869. You may also submit your question or referral to us via email, info@thevnacares.org.
