Our hospice volunteers work in many different capacities including assisting in the office, providing companionship, or assisting our patients with small tasks. While our volunteers can assist with errands, yardwork, and provide relief for caregivers, the most important role of our volunteers is to act as a loving compassionate friend who listens to concerns, anxieties, and joys of the patient, caregivers, and family members.
We will provide training and work with you to find the right fit and schedule that works for you!

Mission Statement

The Visiting Nurse Association (VNA) is a non-profit serving individual in the Kansas City area. Our mission has remained the same since its inception in 1891 - providing quality home health and hospice care to individuals regardless of ability to pay. As a division of VNA, Hospice Care of VNA is dedicated to ensuring comfort, dignity, and quality of life for all our patients wherever they call home.

Description

Established in 1891, Visiting Nurse Association is the home of the oldest home health care agency (VNA Home Health) in the Kansas City area and the sixth oldest in the United States. Over the years, VNA has expanded the services provided and areas of services to reach more people. Hospice Care of VNA was reintroduced to the community in 2020. Our long-lasting legacy comes from our belief that people not only need someone to care for them, they also need someone to care about them. That is what we do at VNA and our patients say it is one of the many things that set us apart.
