PASCO Veterans Care
Our Veterans Care program aims to enhance the quality of life of Colorado’s disabled veterans and their spouses by offering personalized supports and services for their daily care needs. This assistance allows veterans to receive comprehensive care that aligns with their unique preferences, needs, and care plans.
PASCO has been empowering independence for Colorado’s disability community since 1992, and is honored to expand our services to even more individuals through the Aid and Attendance Program for veterans.
Independence and Choice
Through the Aid and Attendance Program
The cost of getting personal care support can be difficult to manage. Did you know the VA offers a pension benefit for eligible veterans and their spouses that pays for support with activities of daily living (ADLs)?
This program, called Aid and Attendance, allows you to choose your own caregiver to assist you with your daily care needs in the comfort of your own home. If eligible, your VA pension could pay for 14-21 hours of personal care and homemaking services per week.
Veterans and their spouses may qualify if they need assistance with any of the following:
Nail Care
Skin Care
Transportation + Errands
Hair Care
Dressing
Transfers
Bathing
Feeding
Light Housekeeping
Shaving
Meal Preparation
Toileting
