One in eight Sarpy County adults is a veteran, and most families ask us what the VA will and will not pay for.

Veterans benefits can help pay for in-home care in several ways, and eligibility is always decided by the VA itself. The Aid and Attendance pension addition pays qualifying wartime veterans and surviving spouses money the household can spend on any caregiver it chooses. Other VA programs arrange aide services or a care budget through a VA social worker. We are not affiliated with the VA, and we will say plainly what we do and do not know.
Aid and Attendance is an addition to the VA pension for wartime veterans and surviving spouses who need help with daily activities like bathing and dressing. It does not require a service-connected disability, and unreimbursed care costs can reduce the income the VA counts, which is how many families qualify. The payment goes to the household, which then chooses its own care.
County veterans service officers help veterans apply for benefits at no charge, and they are the right people to work with. Douglas County’s office is in Omaha and Sarpy County’s is in Papillion, and accredited service organizations do the same work statewide. We never charge for benefit help and never file claims; we point families to the accredited help and provide the care once it is arranged.
The same dependable care every client gets, shaped around the veteran. That usually means personal help with bathing and dressing, companion care for meals and errands, and steady routines delivered by a consistent caregiver. Many veteran households also lean on respite care so a caregiving spouse gets regular relief. Request a free assessment to plan the details.
Yes. Surviving spouses of wartime veterans may qualify for their own pension with Aid and Attendance, and the county service officers can confirm eligibility at no charge. In our care schedules, surviving spouses are treated exactly like the veterans they stood beside, and the metro’s large military-retiree community means we understand these households well.
Our veterans home care covers the metro and its surrounding communities, including the strong military-retiree neighborhoods near the air base. That includes Bellevue, Bennington, Blair, Elkhorn, Fremont, Gretna, La Vista, Millard, Omaha, Papillion, Plattsmouth, Ralston, and Springfield. We also provide personal care, Medicaid home care, 24-hour home care, post-hospital care, dementia care, disability home care, and housing support.
We provide veterans home care to military families across Omaha and the wider metro communities.
