If someone you know who is a veteran who served during wartime, they may be eligible for pension or compensation benefits. If they served but not during wartime they too may be eligible for benefits as a result of diseases or injury during active duty. In addition the spouse or dependents of a veteran may also be eligible for benefits as well.
In this episode of The Informed Eldercare Podcast Herschel Allen with the Department of Veteran Affairs Service Office describes how our elderly veteran’s and their dependents can receive benefits but are not limited to health care, in home assistance for care, nursing care, and much more.
