Home Care for Houston Veterans —
Honoring Service with Compassionate Support
Houston is home to one of the largest veteran populations in the United States. Many veterans and their surviving spouses are entitled to home care benefits they may not know about. CareWorks partners with Veterans Care Coordination to connect eligible veterans with the in-home care services they have earned — guiding families through every step of the process.
VA Aid & Attendance — What It Is and How It Pays for Home Care
Aid & Attendance is a VA pension benefit that provides monthly payments above the regular VA pension to veterans and surviving spouses who need help with daily living activities. Many Houston-area veterans qualify and never know it exists.
Who May Qualify
- Veteran served at least 90 days of active duty, with at least one day during a wartime period
- Veteran or surviving spouse needs help with activities like bathing, dressing, or medication management
- Must meet net worth guidelines — a knowledgeable specialist can help you evaluate your situation
- Surviving spouses of eligible veterans also qualify for a separate benefit amount
- Housebound veterans may qualify even if full Aid & Attendance criteria aren’t met
2025 Monthly Benefit Amounts
Maximum Aid & Attendance monthly payments. Your amount depends on income and care needs.
Amounts subject to change. Based on VA published figures. Contact us for a personalized benefits assessment.
