Veterans Home Care: Support for Those Who Served
They served our country. We’ll serve them with honor.
Many Veterans wish to stay in the comfort of their own homes as they age. However, daily tasks can become more difficult with time, especially for those managing chronic conditions or recovering from injuries. Family Pride Private Home Care in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut is proud to support Veterans and their families with personalized, in-home Veteran care designed to maintain independence, dignity, and well-being.
We help Veterans and spouses access in-home care and VA benefits — with dignity, respect, and heart.
What Is Veterans Home Care?
Veterans home care refers to professional support services provided to eligible Veterans in their own homes. These services focus on non-medical assistance such as:
- Bathing and personal hygiene
- Meal preparation and feeding
- Medication reminders
- Transportation and errands
- Companionship and emotional support
- Assistance with walking, dressing, and toileting
This type of care allows Veterans to continue living safely at home while receiving the help they need. Family Pride’s home care for Veterans is designed to meet the unique needs of those who have served, with flexibility in scheduling and a compassionate, respectful approach.
VA-Funded Support: Aid & Attendance and Homemaker Services
Veterans may be eligible for federal support through the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). Two key programs are:
VA Aid & Attendance Benefit
This monthly financial benefit is available to qualifying Veterans and surviving spouses who require help with daily activities. It can be used to pay for in-home Veteran care provided by agencies like Family Pride Private Home Care.
Eligibility criteria may include:
- At least 90 days of active military service, with one day during wartime
- Honorable discharge
- Demonstrated need for daily assistance
- Limited income and assets
Homemaker and Home Health Aide Care
The VA also offers direct support through its Homemaker and HHA programs. These services are coordinated through the VA Medical Center and may be available part-time or short-term, depending on the individual’s needs and benefits eligibility.
Combining VA benefits with private care allows Veterans in the Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut area to receive consistent support with fewer gaps in service.
Let’s Get Started
At Family Pride Private Home Care, we believe caring for someone is more than a service—it’s a relationship built on trust, compassion, and respect. We are proud to serve our neighbors with a personal commitment to quality and safety that larger franchise agencies simply can’t match.
Private Home Care Services for Veterans
While VA programs offer important resources, many families find that private care offers more flexibility and immediate access. Family Pride Private Home Care provides a full range of in-home support, including:
- Personal care: Help with dressing, bathing, grooming, and toileting
- Companion care: Conversation, games, errands, and social engagement
- Respite care: Temporary relief for family caregivers
- Dementia care: Specialized support for memory impairment
- Mobility assistance: Transfers, walking, and fall prevention
All services are delivered by trained caregivers who understand the unique challenges Veterans may face, including service-related disabilities, PTSD, and emotional isolation.
Eligibility and How to Get Started
Understanding VA benefits and how to access services can feel overwhelming, but there is help available.
To qualify for VA home care or financial aid:
- Veterans must have an honorable discharge
- Must have served during designated wartime periods
- A doctor must confirm the need for daily assistance
- Income and assets must fall within limits set by the VA
Family Pride can assist Veterans and their families in gathering the necessary documents, such as military discharge papers (DD-214), medical evaluations, and financial records. We also provide referrals to Veteran service officers (VSOs) who can guide you through the application process.

- Greater independence: Veterans can remain in familiar surroundings with tailored support.
- Improved safety: Regular care reduces fall risks and medication errors.
- Emotional well-being: Companionship helps prevent isolation and loneliness.
