Long-term care can be expensive, with nursing home care, assisted living, and home health services often costing tens of thousands of dollars each year—and those costs are only expected to rise. As a Veteran, however, you may be eligible for assistance through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), which can help offset these high expenses.

One valuable benefit offered by the VA is Aid and Attendance, a tax-free benefit available to wartime veterans and their surviving spouses. This benefit is designed to assist those who require the regular help of another person with activities of daily living, such as eating, bathing, dressing, and more.

If you need guidance on how to become eligible for these benefits or want to learn more about the services available to you, reach out to our experienced attorneys at Gibbons | Neuman today.

Thank you for your service—it is truly appreciated.
