Serving Those Who Served in Elrama

Elrama veterans needing daily support at home can pursue several VA funding options. Aid and Attendance is a pension supplement for wartime veterans and surviving spouses with ADL needs. The VA pays the household directly, and the family then hires Care Solutions. Eligibility requires 90 days of active duty with one day during a recognized wartime period. Income limits and countable asset thresholds also factor into approval. Veteran-Directed Care, offered through VA Pittsburgh Healthcare System, takes a different approach. VDC provides a monthly budget the veteran controls, with flexibility to pay family caregivers in many cases. The Homemaker and Home Health Aide program contracts our Western PA agency directly with the VA. Authorized hours are billed to the VA, so the veteran owes nothing for covered care. Elrama sits in Washington County along the Monongahela River, about 30 minutes from the University Drive VA campus. The Washington County Veterans Affairs office helps residents file pension and benefits applications. Our intake team explains which VA program fits your loved one's service record and current needs. We verify wartime dates, gather DD-214 paperwork, and track VA timelines. Caregivers help with bathing, dressing, meal preparation, medication reminders, and companionship. Light housekeeping and laundry can be included in the care plan. Respite hours support family caregivers needing scheduled time away. Call (412) 341-7780 to discuss VA-funded home care in Elrama.
