Veterans Pension Benefit Program
By admin
Too many times senior will forego recommended care because the expense is more than the senior can manage. For some, though, there may be an untapped funding source that can create the resources needed to fund in-home care. If you have a patient or client who is a veteran, or the surviving spouse of a veteran, he or she may be eligible for funding through the Aid & Attendance special pension. If the veteran served 90 consecutive days of active military duty with at least one day during a U.S. declared war, the veteran or spouse is already partially qualified for the program.
The Aid & Attendance special pension is an often-over-looked VA pension benefit. This pension addresses the needs of veterans or their surviving spouses who require the regular attendance of someone to assist them with eating, bathing, dressing or other needs.
Encourage your friends and family members meet the initial criteria to contact the country Veterans Administration office of my Comfort Keepers Office at 203-697-1030 for more information on this program. Once all paperwork is submitted, approved, and the veteran or spouse begins receiving benefits, Comfort Keepers can provide the level of in-home care that has allowed so many to live comfortably in the privacy of their own homes. This process is time consuming and may take mouths to complete but a retroactive check will be sent if you are approved.
