VETERAN CARE

Veteran Care

Serving those who served Our Nation
We assist veterans and/or their spouses age 65 or older, who need assistance with activities of daily living. We are an approved agency through the VA Community Care Network and we also help veterans apply for Veteran's Federal Aid and Attendance which can be used to help pay for their and/or their spouses care at home. If one is deemed eligible for the Aid and Attendance we review the following eight (8) questions with the veteran and/or their spouse, with the goal of answering the questions fully to ensure their eligibility for the program. 
  1. Are you a Veteran, spouse, or surviving spouse of a Veteran over age 65?
  2. Do you need some assistance at home with activities of daily living?
  3. Do you have monthly household combined income, from all sources, less than the following amounts? (NOTE: If you are currently spending money on care services, your income could be higher than below and still qualify.)
    1. Couples: $3,000. 
    2. Single Veteran: $2,600. 
    3. Surviving Spouse: $2,000. 
  4. Do you have less than $123,600 in retirement accounts (i.e. 401K, annuities, stocks, bonds, and cash in bank). Your home value and personal property are exempt.
  5. Was the Surviving Spouse married to the Veteran at the time of the Veteran's Death? 
  6. Did the Veteran serve at least one (1) day of ACTIVE DUTY (national guard or reserve do not count) during the time of war? NOTE: They could have served anywhere in the world during these dates:* WW II: Dec 1941 – Dec 1946, Korean War: June 1950 – Jan 1955, Vietnam War: Feb 1961 – Aug 1964 (*if served in Vietnam); Sept 1964 – May 1975 (in or outside of Vietnam); Gulf War: 1990 to Present.
  7. Benefit applicant is receiving monthly money from the VA (or has applied for such) for wounds suffered during their military service. Applicant has previously sent an application to the VA for a Pension Benefit.
