Senior Care Services for Veterans in Shelton, CT

Find out how our senior care services can offer much-needed assistance to veterans living in Shelton, CT

Comfort Keepers offers the highest quality senior care services for those who need homemaking or personal care assistance. Seniors who are veterans of the US armed forces may be able to receive help paying for these services.

American elders who serviced their country in the armed forces for at least 90 days (one of which occurred during wartime), received an honorable discharge, and have a medical need for senior care services might qualify for financial assistance from the Veterans Administration (VA). Comfort Keepers Veterans Care can help seniors coordinate with the VA to determine eligibility, gather necessary documents, and prepare an application for support. Working with the VA can be frustrating, but Comfort Keepers Veterans Care can help streamline the process and lower frustration levels.

Veterans who qualify for services can receive a range of in-home supports, including homemaking and personal care services. Services range from light housekeeping and laundry to meal preparation, local transportation, mobility assistance, and medication management. Personal senior care services include incontinence care, bathing, grooming, and dressing as well as eating assistance and hygiene support. Comfort Keepers also specializes in 24-hour care, respite services, and end-of-life care.

The surviving spouse of a qualified veteran is also eligible for VA benefits. If you are not sure if your senior loved one or their surviving spouse qualifies for VA support, contact a Comfort Keepers care representative. They will be happy to help determine eligibility and assist with necessary documentation. Afterward, they will schedule an in-home consultation to help determine your loved one's specific needs and requirements to create a personalized plan of care.

America's veterans gave their best. Comfort Keepers is honored to provide them with the best possible veteran's care and in-home support and services in their time of need. For more information, please do not hesitate to contact a care coordinator today.
