Serving Those Who Served in New Stanton

New Stanton veterans who served during wartime can apply for the VA Aid and Attendance pension. This tax-free monthly benefit supplements income for veterans or surviving spouses needing ADL help. The household uses those funds to hire Care Solutions as the home caregiver. Eligibility requires 90 days of active duty with one day during a recognized wartime era. Income and countable asset limits also shape pension approval. Veteran-Directed Care is a separate route for veterans enrolled at VA Pittsburgh Healthcare System. VDC assigns a self-directed monthly budget the veteran controls, sometimes paying family members as caregivers. The Homemaker and Home Health Aide program contracts our agency directly with the VA. Authorized hours are billed to the VA, removing out-of-pocket costs for approved care. New Stanton sits in Westmoreland County near the Turnpike interchange, about 40 minutes from the University Drive VA campus. The Westmoreland County Area Agency on Aging coordinates with the County Veterans Affairs office on application support. Our intake team walks families through which program fits their loved one's service history and care needs. We verify wartime dates, gather DD-214 documents, and follow up on VA timelines. Caregivers handle bathing, dressing, meal preparation, medication reminders, and companionship. Light housekeeping and laundry can be added to the care plan. Respite hours support family caregivers needing scheduled relief from daily duties. Call (412) 341-7780 today.
