    Re-branding the VNA of Porter County with VNA of NWI CEO Ann O'Heir

    For decades the VNA of Porter County has been serving the Northwest Indiana community with their life changing programs. With the name of VNA of Porter County it created a misconception that the VNA only serves the citizens of Porter County. To battle this idea the VNA has recently changed to the VNA of NWI. We recently sat down with Visiting Nurses Association of NWI's CEO Ann O'Heir to talk over this change, and how it will impact the region as a whole.
