The Chronic Conditions Clearinghouse is an on-going project. We invite homecare agencies willing to share their “best practices”, tools, or resources with VNAA and their fellow homecare clinicians to contact Shelley Ludwick, Director of Clinical Programs at sludwick@vnaa.org or Emma McMahon, Manager of Education Programs, at emcmahon@vnaa.org.

We are building a “go to” source of information for homecare clinicians – join us in providing a quality resource to our colleagues.
