Nurse Nancy North takes the blood pressure of a patient.

Hartland Community Nurses

The Community Nurses are available for home visits to older Hartland residents for assessment, support and referral to appropriate resources so residents can age in place, at home or at a residence of their choice.

The Nurses can be a helpful point of contact for families who live far from Hartland, assuring them when all is well and alerting them to issues or conditions that need attention. Home visits are also a continuing support to elders returning to their Hartland homes after a hospitalization or rehab. The Community Nurses do not provide direct medical care.

One of a growing number of Community Nurses programs in the Upper Valley, our nurses are supported by the Town of Hartland, Upper Valley Community Nursing Program, the Ottauquechee Health Foundation and private donations. We welcome your referrals and financial support. Please go here to offer your support.

Be part of the team that does not let any Hartland neighbor “fall through the cracks!”

Messages for the Community Nurses may be left at 802-674-4118.
