Abstract
The Visiting Nurse Association of the Midlands in Omaha, Nebraska, developed its patient advocate-visitation program in 1998. Since then, the program has changed, grown, and with the help of many compassionate and caring volunteers, affected the lives of countless care facility residents throughout the greater Omaha area. The volunteers have found that a person’s home is where the person resides, and home care, in the form of support, companionship, understanding, and love, can be given in any setting. Patient advocate-visitation volunteers are meeting the needs of lonely patients and turning care facility rooms into homes.
