Concord Regional Visiting Nurse Association has further expanded its reach, adding Laconia and Sanbornton to the list of 44 communities where it offers health services.
Concord Regional VNA, which says it is the largest home health and hospice provider in New Hampshire, has more than 400 clinicians and staff members that provide health care from birth to end of life, including home care, hospice care, palliative care, pediatric health, as well as community clinics and wellness programs. It serves more than 6,500 New Hampshire residents each year.
“We have seen an increase in requests to provide services to people in the Laconia and Sanbornton communities,” said Beth Slepian, president and CEO.
Concord Regional VNA recognized an increased demand for services in Laconia and Sanbornton, particularly for home care and hospice care, and a growing need for pediatric and maternal health services. The agency will also bring its community wellness programs to the area.
Concord Regional VNA dates back to 1899. Among its accomplishments is opening the state’s first Hospice House 25 years ago.
