The
VNA relies on the support of volunteers to continue to provide the
highest quality of care for our patients and their families. Last
year alone, 400 volunteers enabled the VNA to care for more than
2,500 patients and clients. Volunteers of all ages, from students to
senior citizens are welcome. You may choose a regularly scheduled
activity, participate as needed, or assist with special events. Your
time commitment can vary from a few hours a year to a few hours a
week, depending on your desire and availability. If you are
interested in becoming a VNA volunteer, you may contact the VNA at (219) 462-5195 or by email at
