LONG-TERM CARE
We believe that full and ongoing access to quality long-term care is essential to the health and well being of veterans with disabilities and their caregivers and families. Cost should never come between an injured veteran and the specialized services, support, and equipment they need to live full and productive lives.
Our National Service Officers are dedicated to ensuring that our nation’s veterans receive every benefit to which they are entitled. They will advocate on behalf of veterans and their families to make sure they get what they need.
With PVA by your side, you and your family will never be alone in the journey to care for yourself or a loved one.
