These services provide assistance with activities of daily living and self-management tasks to persons who reside in their own homes.
In-home services include personal care, shopping, housekeeping, meal preparation, and assistance with medication as an alternative to long-term care in a nursing facility. These services are usually paid for by the Veterans Association if the client qualifies and some long term care or nursing home policies will cover this service.
