At Visiting Angels in Lowell, Arkansas, it is our mission to provide compassionate, high-quality, and personalized in-home care for aging veterans. Our dedicated caregivers offer services that honor veterans' service while respecting their independence and dignity. We strive to ensure that veterans can age gracefully in the comfort of their own homes, surrounded by compassionate care.

As the cost of in-home care continues to rise, veterans and their families often face financial challenges. These challenges are becoming more prevalent as the population of elderly veterans grows. Thankfully, veterans who have served in the U.S. military—including those in the Marine Corps, Air Force, Navy, Army, and Coast Guard—are eligible for Veterans Administration (VA) benefits. These benefits can help offset the costs of in-home care, ensuring that aging veterans receive the assistance they need while remaining in the comfort of their own homes.

We offer a wide range of home care services that cover various aspects of daily living. These services are designed to promote comfort, safety, and well-being at home. Some of the services we provide include:

What Are the Qualifications for Veterans’ Home Care Benefits?

Understanding Veterans' Home Care Benefits

U.S. veterans are entitled to various health benefits, including personalized in-home care, through programs like Aid and Attendance and the Community Care Network. These programs offer financial relief for families seeking comprehensive in-home care solutions.

Aid and Attendance Program

Senior veterans who already receive a VA pension may also qualify for Aid and Attendance benefits. This supplemental program provides financial assistance for those needing specialized care at home. Veterans who are bedridden, reside in a nursing home, need help with daily living activities, or have impaired vision may be eligible. Veterans confined to their homes due to a permanent disability can also apply for housebound benefits. These funds are added directly to the veteran’s monthly pension to cover at-home care costs.

Community Care Network Program

Veterans who are part of the Community Care Network can receive additional financial assistance for in-home care services. Through this program, a dedicated service care coordinator evaluates the care required per week and ensures that the veteran receives appropriate support. This coordinator also connects veterans and their families with local caregivers in the Lowell, Arkansas area. Unlike Aid and Attendance, Community Care Network benefits are paid directly to partner organizations.
