“Having a parent age and trying to make sure they can remain independent can be a tall order. Especially when you live in Seattle and your dad lives in Chelan.
…The Chelan Valley Community Nurse program has been a life saver and a life extender. It seems like the town of Chelan is committed to helping seniors and the Nurses program is remarkable. Thank you, Suzie, and CVCN you have made aging independently a possibility.”
