How to Know When It’s Time for VA Home Care

It can be hard to know when a veteran in your life might need extra support at home. Often, the signs are subtle at first, such as: 

      • Difficulty managing daily tasks like dressing or bathing
      • Forgetting to take medications or missing appointments
      • Changes in personal hygiene
      • Unkempt living conditions or spoiled food
      • Increased isolation or lack of interest in social activities

Sometimes, the signs are more noticeable–for example:

      • Frequent falls or difficulty with mobility
      • Severe memory loss or confusion
      • Unexplained weight loss
      • Withdrawal from family and friends
      • Difficulty managing chronic health conditions

The first step to being healthy is making sure you have your seen physician and had a physical in the past 12 months. If any of these signs sound familiar, it may be time to explore how VA Home Care services can provide the assistance needed to maintain independence and dignity at home.
