Providing Veteran Care Services to Alameda and the Surrounding Areas

Veteran home care from our Alameda office can include non-medical companion and personal care services, which covers everything from companionship and household duties like cooking, cleaning and laundry to individual needs such as bathing and hygiene, continence and toileting care, rehabilitation care and mobility assistance.

The Veterans Aid & Attendance Pension is a benefit that helps reduce the cost of care for older veterans and their surviving spouses. Veterans and their spouses who require the regular aid and attendance of another person (for activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, medication monitoring and other veteran care services) may qualify for this special benefit in addition to a monthly pension. To learn more about Aid and Attendance benefits, military service qualifications and how you may benefit from these services, visit the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.

FirstLight Home Care of Alameda provides disability care for those with mobility-related issues such as getting in and out of a vehicle or bed, moving around the house, climbing stairs or maintaining proper posture.

While putting your loved one into a care facility may sound like the easiest route, they will be much happier in their own home.
