LAVN get ready to party

After 35 years of providing home medical care, physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy, Los Alamos Visiting Nurses have decided the time is right for a party.

As a result, an open house will be held from 11 a.m.-1:30 p.m. Wednesday at the Visiting Nurses office.

Cake and punch will be served. “(We’re) just inviting everybody to come celebrate,” executive director Sarah Rochester said. “(It’s) kind of a long time to have a business in Los Alamos.

“We love the community and it’s our way of saying thank you.”  

Rochester started the business with Edy Adnerson.

“Thirty-five years ago Edy Anderson and I were each working for physicians in the community and each of us were making home visits for more physicians …and we thought that our community needed a home care service.”

While Anderson moved to Taos, Rochester has seen the Visiting Nurses expand into Española and northern Santa Fe.

Additionally, Rochester complimented the “wonderful” staff who work at the Visiting Nurses, calling them really “super” folks.

Several factors led to the organization’s success, Rochester said.
