About Veterans Benefits Home Care

Are you or a loved one missing out on the benefits and services you deserve as a war veteran? As veterans age, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) will provide benefits and services that address a variety of issues including the changing health risks they face, as well as financial challenges through VA benefits and health services. For Veterans over 65 there is a little known benefit that can help with care. The Special Pension Benefit, also known as the Aid and Attendance Pension, may help with expenses such as hearing aids, eyeglasses, and medical alarm systems in its Geriatric Home Care services for veterans. It can also help with expenses such as in-home care.


 

Veterans and/or qualifying spouses may receive assistance such as help with meals and housework, medication care, travel to and from doctor appointments and shopping, as well as assistance with personal care such as grooming, bathing, eating, dressing, mobility assistance and transferring and repositioning.
