What We Do

Visiting Nurse Association of Northern New Jersey (VNA) is a non-profit organization that was founded in 1898 as a volunteer effort to provide health services to underserved and underprivileged residents in the Morristown community. The efforts of the compassionate nurses dramatically improved quality of life in the community, helped defeat tuberculosis, and led to the development of public health innovations. Now in its 118th year of service, VNA combines the dedication of our founders with innovative home care solutions to provide a full range of services including skilled nursing, rehabilitation therapies, certified home health aides, hospice, telehealth and caregiver support.
