Sewing Cloth Face Masks
Like many of our community partners, VNA is experiencing a critically low supply of face masks for our nurses and health care professionals. For people who are handy with a sewing machine, this is a wonderful way to help out and give back to your community. At this time, Michael’s craft stores and JoAnn Fabrics are open and offering curbside pick-up. Supplies to make masks can still be purchased.
Below, we're providing two helpful links.

If you arrive outside of business hours, masks may be left in the mail slot located to the right of the door. VNA will ensure the sanitizing and laundering of the masks prior to use.
