Abstract
This research has focused on a partnership between a private sector home health care entity, the Visiting Nurse Associations of America (VNAA) and the public sector Senior Companion Program (SCP) of the domestic volunteer agency now a part of the Corporation for National and Community Service. This research examined the partnerships between the two agencies in 18 local demonstration sites in order to assess how a home health agency worked. Specific areas reviewed were administration of the partnership, communication patterns between the agencies, areas of conflict, the future of the liaison, and how effectively volunteer performance matched original expectations.
