Vision

Our vision is a community where every person, regardless of age, health status, or income, can live with dignity and comfort throughout all stages of life.

At Iowa City Hospice and Visiting Nurse Association, we believe home-based care is the future of healthcare. It’s more than just convenient; it’s comfortable, financially responsible, and centered entirely around the individual. By delivering care where people feel safest and most at ease, we’re able to honor personal preferences, reduce unnecessary hospitalizations, and help families navigate care with confidence and compassion.
We envision a community where this kind of care is not a privilege, but a standard. Through innovation, education, and deep community partnerships, we are shaping a more connected, more humane approach to health and end-of-life care-- at home, where it matters most.
