Each of us has a role to play ~ no matter how big or small

Let’s build RDNA’s bridge together

RDNA’s enduring strength has been, and continues to be, the passing of the RDNA baton from generation to generation ~ connecting the past, with today, toward a healthy, strong future.

Today, RDNA’s in-home nursing services are essential for many elderly and medically vulnerable residents. Within the health care system, this nursing resource is severely limited, if available, and very costly. The vast majority of Maine communities no longer have their community nurse.

Operating costs are rising. RDNA does not receive Medicare/Mainecare or insurance reimbursements, and is therefore also not eligible for federal and state health care funding for providers. Not restricted by these regulations and with your support, nurses are free to regularly visit without limitations on the number of visits or how long a client may receive services ~ a relationship typically lasting for years with the same nurse.

All of us are incredibly grateful for the decades of support this agency has and continues to receive. Simply, thank you!
