a reception followed at the deer park inn we want to congratu late this young couple and wish themthe nurses offer home care pickering the victorian order of nurses von believes that the best place in the world to recover from illness is in the familiar surroundings of home therefore providing quality nursing service on a visit basis to individuals and families has become their primary func tion the von a united way agency was first established in canada in 1897 this early formation was in response to a need for nursing care in the outlying districts in the far west it quickly became apparent that it was impractical for nurses to travel long dis- tances on horseback and sleigh so the order established cottage hospitals to which sick settlers could be brought as canadas health care has become more structured these hospitals have been handed over to local groups this has allowed the von to return to its roots and to go back to the home setting where they provide an alternative to institutional health care the durham region branch was established in 1914 and is celebrating its 70th birthday this year the nine nurses working in the ajaxpickering area made a total of 6795 visits to local homes during the 198384 year for all patients particularily the elderly and chronically or terminally ill nursing care in the home enables them to maintain their independence as long as possible it also makes earlier discharge from hospital workable often there is no direct cost for a von visit it may be c6vcred through a home care program or an insurance plan however there may be a charge per visit fees are put on a sliding scale according to your ability to pay many united way dollars go into this effort to make the von program accessible to everyone united way funds also allow for the pro vision of nursing assessments to patients and families free of charge in addition all bereavement visit to families where care lias been provided is at no cost the von readily admits its debt to un ited way supporters the organization appeals to ajaxpickering residents to be as generous as possible with their 1984 donation best of everything in their married life they will reside on
