Veteran Care

Looking for in-home veteran senior care? Our commitment lies in assisting veterans and surviving spouses in accessing the benefits they rightfully deserve, including in-home veteran assisted living services and other essential support.

Caring Companions Provides Quality In-Home Care for Veterans

Based on data from the U.S. Census Bureau, the United States is home to approximately 19 million veterans aged 18 and above, of which around 13 million are aged 50 and older. As these valiant individuals grow older, they frequently express the desire to maintain their independence and reside in their own homes. Over time, however, many may find themselves in need of assistance with certain daily activities. Upon receiving an honorable discharge from active military service, veterans gain access to a wide array of benefits, including healthcare and medical coverage, pension plans, life insurance, burial and memorial services, and numerous other benefits.

Home Care Benefits for Veterans

Veterans may be eligible for VA in-home care benefits, known as Community Care Network (CCN) or VA Aid and Attendance, Housebound Allowance. These benefits offer qualified veterans and their spouses funding options for a comprehensive array of in-home care services. To determine individual eligibility for these valuable veterans’ in-home care benefits, including those available through the CCN, contact the Caring Companions team for further verification and assistance.

Community Care Network (CCN)

Veterans can access in-home care services through the VA’s Community Care Network (CCN). The Community Care Network (CCN) serves as the direct link between the VA and community providers like Caring Companions. The VA determines a veteran’s enrollment eligibility for home care benefits through the CCN program. Upon acceptance of enrollment in CCN, a referral is generated to a VA case manager through the Homemaker/Home Health Aide Program (HHHA), where an evaluation with the veteran will determine how many home care hours are allocated and what the care plan should be. This program enables veterans to receive care from community providers in collaboration with the VA to ensure timely and accessible support. The CCN aims to expand veterans’ access to high-quality healthcare services, including in-home care, by integrating community resources with VA benefits. Veterans interested in exploring their eligibility and accessing these services should contact Caring Companions for detailed guidance and support.

How Do We Start Veteran Care Services?

Before services start, we will meet our new client and family at home and have a conversation so we can understand the companionship care needs. During this free, comprehensive in-home assessment with the senior and family, we will go into detail about the issues they are experiencing. This will result in a care plan that details the tasks our caregivers will perform.

Meeting at home will also give us an opportunity to assess the home situation and make health and safety recommendations. If needed, we will contact medical professionals for specific instructions relevant to caring for chronic conditions, especially if there has been a recent hospital or acute care facility discharge. We will then assign a wonderful caregiver matched to your loved one’s needs and start service.

Our services are customized to the needs and desires of each client and are designed to achieve the quality of life they seek. Immediate adjustments to caregivers or the care plan can be made as necessary. If the caregiver, senior, or family ever has any questions, supervisors are available by phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
