Caring for our Community
Colorado VNA provides high-quality health care for medically underserved and under/uninsured seniors and aging patients living at or below federal poverty guidelines. This includes “charity” or “indigent care.”
In 2009, more than 650 patients received free medical care. Colorado VNA’s indigent care services provide in-home medical care, personal care, and wellness services to keep low-income and indigent senior patients living independently and self-sufficiently at home.
“Community support and grant funding play a vital role in our ability to meet the healthcare needs of lower-income people, especially the elderly who have limited or fixed incomes and are often forgotten,” said Catherine Dunlap, RN, Program Manager at Colorado VNA. “Colorado VNA is so grateful to our donors and the foundation community for their understanding and support of this very special population.”
