If you or your spouse served during a wartime period and now need help with bathing, dressing, meals, or getting around the house, the VA’s Aid & Attendance benefit may help pay for care at home. It’s an add-on to the VA pension for veterans and surviving spouses who meet the VA’s service, income, and net-worth rules.
Unreimbursed in-home care can sometimes count as a medical expense when the VA reviews income. We don’t decide that; a VA-accredited representative and the VA do. What we will do is give you clear, itemized invoices to keep with your paperwork.
How Acuity Homecare can help
- Non-medical home care, including personal care, companionship, meals, light housekeeping, and respite. Hourly care covers Fairfield, New Haven, and Hartford Counties, plus parts of Litchfield County (call for details), and live-in care is available statewide and on Cape Cod.
- Clear, itemized monthly invoices you can keep for your VA paperwork.
- A referral to a free, accredited Connecticut Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Service Officer, who can tell you whether you qualify and help you apply.
Acuity Homecare doesn’t file VA claims or charge for VA benefit help. You can see current VA rates and rules on the VA pension rates page and the VA Aid & Attendance page. Call us at 203-295-0274 for a free consultation.
