Today, many of our Veterans are vulnerable to a variety of issues that can impact their quality of life. These include:
A recent study published in the National Library of Medicine on malnutrition among older Veterans in home-based primary CARE found that 15% were malnourished.
According to the National Center for PTSD, up to 23% of Veterans suffer from the disorder at some point in their life. The emergence of PTSD symptoms in late life (after retirement age) has been noted to correlate with the onset of dementia.
Older Veterans are far more likely than non-Veterans to report experiencing two or more chronic conditions.
Because we know these complications can make life more difficult for Veterans and their families, our in-home CARE services for Veterans work to address them.
Our agency owners go above and beyond in helping Veterans access their benefits or determine their eligibility. This significant service, offered by most of our franchises, ensures that veterans can navigate the complexities of their entitlements with ease and confidence. We are committed to honoring our Veterans by providing compassionate CARE and expert assistance, helping them achieve a better quality of life.
Our CARE team provides support for Veterans in the following areas:
Bathing, toileting, dressing, teeth brushing, and other personal hygiene tasks can be difficult to manage due to age or chronic illness. Our compassionate CAREgivers are trained to provide these services with respect and dignity.
Our CAREgivers can help prepare meals, shop for groceries, monitor dietary restrictions, and provide assistance in promoting a healthy lifestyle.
Keeping a clean home isn’t just about hygiene; it also encourages comfort and peace of mind. Our CAREgivers can assist with any daily household chores to ensure a clean, safe, and welcoming house.
Our CAREgivers will encourage your loved one to move more safely. Whether it’s a walk up and down the driveway or assistance with physical therapy exercises, our CAREgivers can help your loved one stay active.
If driving is difficult for you or your Veteran loved one, our CAREgivers can assist with tasks like grocery shopping, medication pick-up, maintaining personal appointments, and more.
We can accompany our clients to their medical appointments to help them navigate any information or instructions provided by their doctor.
Our CAREgivers approach engagement through gentle and positive encouragement. We facilitate meaningful activities to help our clients socialize, share their thoughts, and build meaningful relationships with their CAREgivers.
Managing age, disability, or injury means often dealing with complex medication schedules and dosages. We’ll make sure you or your Veteran loved one will take the appropriate amount of medication right when they need it.
Our CARE services can include pet CARE, such as dog walking, feeding, transportation, assistance with vet appointments, pet hygiene, and other services to keep both owner and pet happy and healthy.
