What is “Aid and Attendance?”
This VA benefit is a pension paid to veterans or their survivors with an additional amount known as “Aid and Attendance” to assist those who are disabled and need help to live safely at home.
While most people are aware that the VA compensates veterans who are injured or disabled as the result of military service, many are unaware that a pension exists for wartime veterans who do NOT have a service-connected disability.

My dad is 98 a WWII vet. VetAssist has been a lifesaver for me. Dad suffers from dementia but wanted to stay in his own apartment, where he is comfortable and feels safe. If it weren’t for VetAssist he would have needed to a nursing home.
