VA Programs We Support
The VA offers Homemaker / Home Health Aide Care (H/HHAC) and Aid and Attendance benefits programs to provide Veterans with personal care services as part of their benefits packages.
Homemaker and Home Health Aide Care
The Homemaker and Home Health Aide Care program relies on empathetic caregivers to assist with daily activities at home and provide thoughtful companionship. This program is best for Veterans who need help completing tasks at home but are not ready or interested in living in a full-time nursing home or skilled nursing facility. They want to age in place and do it as comfortably as possible. It can also provide relief for family caregivers needing a break from their selfless responsibilities.
VA Aid and Attendance Benefits
The VA Aid and Attendance Benefits program is an additional benefit tacked onto a Veteran’s pension that is used to offset the costs of home care. Visiting Angels of Lewisburg is authorized to accept Aid and Attendance benefits from local Veterans in need of our in-home care services.
