Home Care for Veterans in Richmond, VA and Nearby Areas

The assistance of a trained caregiver, however, allows them to maintain their independence in the familiar surroundings of their own homes.
Here at Visiting Angels Richmond, we know how important it is to provide our elderly veterans with the care and respect they deserve as they enter their golden years. This is why we have developed a range of home care services to cater to the individual requirements of veterans residing in Richmond, Mechanicsville, Glen Allen, Short Pump and the neighboring communities of Henrico and Hanover Counties, VA.

Why Home Care is Essential for Elderly Veterans in Richmond, VA and Surrounding Areas
Did you know that out of the entire veteran population in the state of Virginia, over 36 percent of them are over the age of 65? Additionally, many of them live in Henrico County, Hanover County and the Greater Richmond area.
As we age, it's natural to want to remain in the comfort and familiarity of our own homes. This is especially true for elderly veterans who have sacrificed so much for our country. However, many seniors who wish to remain at home will need help with everyday tasks that have become too difficult due to age-related issues, symptoms of chronic health issues, physical and cognitive limitations from injuries and other issues.
Fortunately, our team of experienced caregivers at Visiting Angels Richmond has been dedicated to providing compassionate and personalized care to help elderly veterans maintain their independence and quality of life since 2007. We greatly appreciate the sacrifices our veterans have made to keep our country safe, which is why we want to ensure that they have the support they need to live out their golden years in their cherished home!

This is particularly helpful for older veterans who may need services that aren't available in their neighborhood VA facility. Many different types of professional home care services are available to veterans via the Community Care Network, and they may use their VA benefits to pay for them.
First, veterans need a referral from their VA practitioner in order to be eligible for care from the Community Care Network. Their VA physician or the VA's Care Coordination department may be contacted for a referral request.
