Description:
VA Caregiver Support Program was developed to support Caregivers of Veterans, our partners in ensuring the best care of Veterans. The Program provides a wide range of services to Caregivers of eligible Veterans of all eras. The Program provides additional services, including a monthly stipend, to Caregivers of Veterans (or Service members undergoing medical discharge) who incurred or aggravated a serious injury (including Traumatic Brian Injury, psychological trauma or other mental disorders) in the line of duty on or after September 11,2001. Caregivers of eligible Veterans are urged to apply for the Program through our website (www.caregiver.va.gov) or directly through the local Caregiver Support Coordinator. Your local Caregiver Support Coordinator serves as a source of information about the program. They can coordinate training, connect you to resources within the VA and within your local community, and provide you with support. WHO IS ELIGIBLE FOR THE PROGRAM? Caregivers for Veterans of all eras may be eligible for services if the Veteran: 1. Is unable to perform an activity of daily living (i.e. dress or undress, bathe, groom, difficulty with mobility, etc.); or 2. Needs supervision or protection based on other impairment or injury (including symptoms or residuals of neurological care). Caregivers of post 9/11 Veterans may be eligible for supplemental services, if: 1.

The serious injury requires the need for personal care services for a minimum of 6months based on a clinical determination that takes into account various factors; 3. It is in the best interest of the Veteran to participate in the Caregiver Support Program; 4.
