If you are a Veteran who needs assistance but prefers to stay in your own home, VA home care may be the right option for you. In-home care provides the assistance and support you need to live at home safely and maintain your independence. Caregivers can come to your home to assist with daily activities and provide companionship. Caregivers are trained to help with:
Preparing meals
Shopping or running errands
Transportation
Medication reminders
Light housekeeping
Chores such as doing laundry
Personal care
Post-hospital care
Physical assistance around the house
Companionship and conversation
In-home care eliminates the stress of relocating to an assisted living facility and allows Veterans to age at home where they are comfortable. Some of the benefits of in-home care for Veterans are:
Familiar surroundings:
In-home care allows your loved one to age in their own home, surrounded by familiar faces and memories. This can be a huge benefit for their mental health and well-being.
More regular family time:
In-home care can help to make it easier for families to spend time together. With a professional caregiver taking care of your loved one, you can have peace of mind knowing that they are being well cared for while freeing up your schedule to spend quality time with them.
VA benefits ease the financial burden of care:
In-home care is often more affordable than other types of in-home care, making it a great option for families on a budget. VA benefits can help to cover the cost of in-home care, making it even more affordable.
In-home care is a great option for Veterans and their families in need of extra assistance. With in-home care, Veterans can maintain their quality of life while living at home. VA benefits can help cover the cost of home health aide services if you are unable to care for yourself and need assistance while living at home.
