How VA Benefits Can Help Pay for In-Home Care
Many families don’t realize their veteran may qualify for VA benefits that help cover the cost of in-home care. Here’s what to know.
Who Qualifies for VA Home Care?
VA home care programs are designed for veterans who meet certain financial criteria and show a physical need for help at home. Family caregivers of veterans may also qualify for respite care through VA benefits. A good first step is talking with your veteran’s VA care team or a local Veterans Service Officer.
Our Partnership With the Department of Veterans Affairs
Comfort Keepers works with the VA through its Community Care Network to provide homemaker and home health aide services for eligible veterans. Our experience with the VA can make the process easier, and our team can help coordinate care once benefits are in place.
