Bridging Care and Compassion: Senior Helpers' Impactful Partnership with the VA
For over a year now, we have had the distinct privilege of collaborating with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to offer comprehensive home care companionship services to veterans across the entire state of Connecticut. The success of our initiative has been nothing short of remarkable.
Identifying Risks, Ensuring Safety: A Holistic Approach to Care
One of the key aspects of our collaboration with the VA involves our dedicated team visiting veterans' homes to conduct thorough risk assessments. Our primary goal is to identify potential hazards and implement strategies to keep the veterans under our care safe and secure. In addition, we assess the need for durable medical equipment (DME) that can enhance their safety and quality of life.

Comprehensive Assistance Tailored to Each Veteran
Our commitment to the well-being of the veterans goes beyond the standard caregiving services. We take pride in offering personalized care plans that cater to the unique needs of each individual. This includes, but is not limited to, laundry services, light housekeeping, assistance with showers, help with dressing, meal preparation, and most importantly, companionship.
Exceptional Growth and Trust: A Testament to Quality Care
The trust and satisfaction of the veterans we serve, as well as our strong relationship with VA nurse case managers, have resulted in a significant increase in the number of veterans choosing Senior Helpers for their home care needs. The exponential growth over the past several months stands as a testament to the outstanding care and support we provide.
Effective Communication with VA Nurse Case Managers
Effective communication is at the heart of our collaboration with VA nurse case managers. We ensure seamless coordination and exchange of information to guarantee that our veterans receive the best possible care. This collaborative effort has played a pivotal role in the success of our program.
Honoring Veterans: Events and Aid and Attendance Referrals
Our commitment to honoring and celebrating our veterans extends beyond daily care. Tim, the owner of Senior Helpers, has personally hosted a number of events for the vets, including a special address to veterans on Veteran's Day. Additionally, we actively encourage our veterans to explore the Aid and Attendance benefit. Through this initiative, we have referred many veterans to inquire about potential additional home care services.
A Continuing Journey of Dedication
At Senior Helpers, our collaboration with the VA is not just a partnership; it's a shared mission to provide the best possible care for those who have served our nation. As we continue on this journey, our dedication to excellence remains unwavering, and we look forward to making a positive impact on the lives of even more veterans in the months and years to come.
