Many veterans and their families want to know if it's possible to receive professional care at home without taking on the full financial burden. If you're asking whether the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) helps cover the cost of in-home care, the answer is that many eligible veterans and some surviving spouses may qualify for benefits that help make these services more accessible.
At Comfort Keepers South Denver, we're proud to serve those who have served our country. Through our partnership with the Department of Veterans Affairs, we help veterans and their families understand available resources while providing compassionate in-home care that supports independence, dignity, and quality of life.
How VA Benefits Can Support In-Home Care
The Department of Veterans Affairs offers several programs that may help qualifying veterans receive care in the comfort of their own homes. These programs are designed to help veterans remain independent while receiving assistance with everyday tasks.
Eligibility may depend on:
- Military service history
- Current health and personal care needs
- Financial qualifications
- Recommendations from a VA healthcare provider
Some surviving spouses may also be eligible for certain VA respite care benefits.
Understanding your eligibility is the first step toward accessing the care and support you deserve.
What Does Veteran Home Care Include?
Every veteran has unique goals and care needs. That's why Comfort Keepers develops customized care plans that provide the right level of support while encouraging independence.
Our caregivers can assist with:
- Personal care, including bathing, dressing, and grooming

Why More Veterans Choose to Receive Care at Home
Remaining at home offers comfort, familiarity, and the ability to continue enjoying everyday routines. For many veterans, aging in place provides both emotional and physical benefits.
Professional in-home care can help:
- Promote independence
- Improve safety around the home
- Reduce loneliness through regular companionship
