FORM 990, PART I, LINE 1 VISITING NURSE SERVICE OF NEW YORK'S MISSION IS TO PROVIDE HIGH QUALITY HOME AND COMMUNITY-BASED CARE AND TO PROMOTE INDEPENDENT COMMUNITY LIVING REGARDLESS OF PATIENTS' ABILITY TO PAY. VNSNY'S COMMUNITY BENEFIT PROGRAM, CARRIED OUT THROUGH ITS AFFILIATE ORGANIZATIONS, EXPANDS ACCESS TO CARE, SUPPORTS AGING IN PLACE, ADVANCES RESEARCH AND PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT, PROVIDES OPPORTUNITIES FOR DISADVANTAGED CHILDREN AND FAMILIES AND DEVELOPS THE FUTURE WORKFORCE. FORM 990, PART III, LINE 1 VNSNY'S MISSION: PROVIDE QUALITY HOME HEALTH & COMMUNITY SERVICES REGARDLESS OF ABILITY TO PAY. VNSNY SHARES THIS MISSION WITH ITS RELATED 501(C)(3) CORPORATIONS. ALL PROGRAM SERVICES EXCEPT RESEARCH ARE DELIVERED BY VNSNY'S AFFILIATES. VNSNY PROVIDES SIGNIFICANT ASSISTANCE, HOWEVER, TO THE OTHER 501(C)(3)S TO ENABLE THEIR PROGRAM-SERVICE DELIVERY, BY: (I) LENDING ADMINISTRATIVE, MANAGEMENT, POLICY SETTING, INVESTMENT, FUNDRAISING, AND ADVOCACY SUPPORT; AND (II) MAKING GRANTS OF PHILANTHROPIC DOLLARS - WITH MONIES FROM DONORS AND FROM ITS OWN RESERVES - TO SUPPORT THE CHARITABLE INITIATIVES OF ITS NOT-FOR-PROFIT AFFILIATES. FUNDS RAISED BY VNSNY FOR ITS AFFILIATES ARE CONTRIBUTED TO THEM, BUT VNSNY BEARS MOST OF THE FUNDRAISING EXPENSE FOR ITS RELATED ORGANIZATIONS. IN 2015, VNSNY AND ITS AFFILIATES PROVIDED $19M IN CHARITABLE CARE AND COMMUNITY SERVICES. FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A THE CENTER FOR HOMECARE POLICY AND RESEARCH, ESTABLISHED IN 1993, CONDUCTS SCIENTIFICALLY RIGOROUS RESEARCH TO PROMOTE THE DELIVERY OF HIGH-QUALITY, COST-EFFECTIVE CARE IN THE HOME AND COMMUNITY.

THE CENTER ADVANCES A BROAD VISION OF "HOME CARE" IN THE CONTEXT OF OVERALL PERSON-CENTERED CARE DESIGNED TO PROMOTE HEALTH, SUPPORT POSITIVE AGING, FACILITATE RECOVERY, MANAGE CHRONIC ILLNESS AND PREPARE FOR END OF LIFE. RESEARCHERS WORK TO EMBODY THIS VISION IN FUNDED RESEARCH AND CONCRETE PRACTICES THAT CAN BE EFFECTIVELY INCORPORATED INTO DAILY PATIENT CARE.

FOR EXAMPLE, A RECENT PUBLISHED STUDY CONDUCTED BY VNSNY RESEARCHERS USED NATIONAL MEDICARE DATA TO DEMONSTRATE THE VALUE OF EARLY AND INTENSE HOME NURSING VISITS, ALONG WITH EARLY PHYSICIAN OFFICE FOLLOW-UP AFTER A HOSPITAL STAY. THESE INTERVENTIONS SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED 30-DAY READMISSIONS AMONG HEART FAILURE PATIENTS.
