We are Authorized VA Care Providers in Scranton, PA
If you served in the U.S. Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, Space Force, or Coast Guard, and did not receive a dishonorable discharge, then you may be eligible for VA health benefits.
Your VA health benefits can help pay for health care services such as preventative care, inpatient hospital care, urgent and emergency care, and even long-term care services, such as assisted living, live-in care, or home health care.
Additionally, Veterans may be eligible to receive paid Homemaker / Home Health Aide Care through an authorized provider within the VA's Community Care Network such as Visiting Angels of Scranton. You may use H/HHAC for respite care for family caregivers in need of a break or as a way to remain living at home as you age rather than moving into a nursing home.

Veterans who received a VA pension may also qualify for the Aid & Attendance benefit. At Visiting Angels of Scranton, we accept Aid & Attendance benefits. These benefits are often paid directly to you and added to your monthly pensions.
