Congratulations to Beth Austin for being nominated to represent RDVNA at the annual

LNA of the year ceremonies in Concord

Rochester District Visiting Nurses Association is proud to nominate Beth Austin for "New Hampshire Licensed Nursing Assistant DAY." Over the past three years Beth has been a very important team member providing home care LNA services to frail elderly patients in their home. She is dependable, reliable and very well respected by her team members including; nurses, therapists, LNA's and supervisors. The staff considers her to always be upbeat and never rushed with her patients. "You would never know that she has another patient to go to" as told by one nurse. Never does she complain about her assignment - even when she has the most difficult patients or driving considerately long distances. Her professionalism is admired by all along with her flexibility in doing her job.
Beth provides excellent care to her patients. She is able to identify changes or problems in their condition and always reports promptly to the nurses. We are very fortunate to have Beth on staff at RDVNA.

Rochester District VNA Adult Day Out Program

I am a care giver right in the middle of the sandwich generation - In addition to my husband and 6 year old son - we are now also caring for my elderly mother-in law. The Rochester District Visiting Nurse Adult Day Center has been a blessing to me and my family. I am able to work full time and have my mother in law go to the center where I know that she is not only safe, but well cared for. She has made so many friends while she has been there and everyone from the staff to the participants are like a big family- I often stop in and hear the laughter, reminiscing and singing and you can't help but join in. I know with out this safe caring environment she would surely need to be placed in a nursing home - The RDVNA provides the needed support that at 89 years old my mother in law can stay at home surrounded by family and spend the day surrounded by friends.
