VNAA Agency Board Member Volunteer of the Year Deb Milligan, RN, MPH

Registered nurse Deb Milligan was awarded the 2009 VNAA Agency Board Member Volunteer of the Year on May 15, 2009, in San Antonio, Texas, at the VNAA's Award Gala. She has served on the Board of Directors for the Visiting Nurse Services (VNS), Des Moines, Iowa, for the past six years and is currently Board President. When she is not helping with the Board, she works for a pharmaceutical company. She completed a Master's in Public Health to better prepare herself to serve and advocate for public health needs in Polk County and in Iowa. Her master's practicum focused on depression in the hopes of benefiting VNS' adult health clients. She developed depression-screening tools that were integrated into various programs at the agency and also secured funding through her company to provide clinical depression training for staff.
Deb's dedication, expertise in her field and her focused attention on staff's ability to use IT are the reasons why she was nominated and selected as the VNAA's Agency Board Member of the Year.
