Veterans and their families have made sacrifices and demonstrated their outstanding commitment to serve others. They have given of themselves and shown the highest levels of honor and integrity, respect for others and love for their country. At Cherished Companions, we strive to honor, respect and serve those who have served, and to provide the kind of compassionate care and service our veterans have most assuredly earned through their commitment and sacrifice.

Many older adults who have served in the U.S. military aren’t aware they may be eligible for in-home personal care benefits through the Veterans Administration (VA).

At Cherished Companions, we are authorized by the VA to provide home care services to veterans, and the VA may cover or reduce the cost of your home care – depending on your individual circumstances and various eligibility criteria.

For our honored veterans managing through the various challenges of aging, we offer dedicated, compassionate in-home care to support veterans and their families with their daily needs.

Available VA Programs for veterans in need of home care services:

The following are benefits/programs available to veterans from VA Services to help veterans remain living in their homes by ensuring they have access to home care to support them with their daily needs.

Homemaker and Home Health Aide Care

This program is for Veterans who need personal care services and help with activities of daily living. This program is also for Veterans who are isolated, and for their primary caregivers who are experiencing burden.

Homemaker and Home Health Aide services can be used in combination with other Home and Community Based Services.

Homemaker Home Health Aides work for organizations such as Cherished Companions that has a contract with VA. Homemaker or Home Health Aide services can be used as a part of an alternative to nursing home care, and to get Respite Care at home for Veterans and their family caregivers. The services of a Homemaker or Home Health Aide can help Veterans remain in their own home. Please learn more about the program details at this VA link.

Aid and Attendance Benefits (if you have a VA Pension)

VA Aid and Attendance or Housebound benefits provide monthly payments added to the amount of a monthly VA pension for qualified Veterans and survivors. If you need help with daily activities, or you’re housebound, you may qualify. Please learn more about the program details at this VA link.

Community Care Network benefits

Veterans who qualify for Community Care Network benefits may be eligible for assistance with home-health care costs. Qualified veterans will be assigned to a service care coordinator, who will determine how many hours per week the veteran requires care and will help the family connect with caregivers in their area. Community Care Network benefits are paid directly to partner organizations. Please learn more at this VA link.
