Home Health & Nursing Services
At MDNA, our staff is committed to providing quality and affordable health care services to those who are homebound and living on Mount Desert Island, Trenton, and Lamoine. We do so by partnering with you, your Maine PCP/healthcare provider, and care management team. We also provide you and your family with a mutually agreed upon patient-centered plan of care. Our team assists you in recovery and maintenance by helping you remain healthy and safe in your own home. Lastly, we offer you and your family preventative health care services through individual or group sessions.
