Honoring and Helping our Aging Veterans

Veterans Day is our opportunity to honor the men and women in uniform who have bravely fought for our freedom and served our country.  At Aegis Living, it has been our privilege and pleasure to care for many veterans and their family members over the years in our assisted living and memory care communities.  We are grateful to serve and support our veterans with dignity for the many sacrifices they have made in their lifetime.  They are truly our heroes. On this special day, we honor our military—both young and old—for their brave service.

It is our honor to care for the veterans in our communities and hopefully, make a difference in the lives of your loved ones. Here are two of the many ways we honor our veterans living at Aegis Living:

Bringing Awareness to Veterans Benefits

Veterans over the age of 65 now number more than 12.6 million.  These veterans have seen conflicts around the world, including World War II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War and even the Persian Gulf War.  The Department of Veteran Affairs is committed to providing benefits and services to these aging veterans, including their changing healthcare needs.   But many are not getting the benefits they are eligible for because veterans and their families are unaware of the available programs and how to file for these benefits.

Did you know the VA Aid and Attendance program benefits may be available to you to help pay for assisted living and memory care expenses?  Under the VA Aid and Attendance Special Pension, also known as the A&A Pension, qualified veterans or their surviving spouses can receive tax-free monthly sums meant to help defray the costs of assisted living. To be eligible, you must be a veteran who has served at least 90 days in active duty with at least one day during wartime.  You must have been honorably discharged, and some income restrictions may apply.  For more information and to see if you are eligible, contact a Veterans Service Officer at a regional VA office or call 1.800.827.1000.

The Aegis Living Wall of Honor

Inspired by our many residents who have served in the military, Aegis Living is proud to offer families a special way to honor our veterans.   The Aegis Wall of Honor on our Aegis Living Facebook page.  It is our way of recognizing those who have served in the military for all to see.

Did you know we offer short-term stays for seniors? Whether you are heading off on a much-needed vacation, need temporary support for a few days, or just need a break for a few hours a day, your loved one can enjoy everything our vibrant communities offer. You can relax knowing they are being safely cared for by an experienced and dedicated team.

We’re here when you need a break.
In the final stages of life, when a cure is beyond reach, Aegis Living’s hospice program offers dignified End-of-Life Care. We join forces with a trusted local hospice provider, either chosen by the family or recommended by the community, to offer comforting care and supportive services to your loved one during this challenging time. Through a coordinated care plan, hospice services complement and layer on top of our daily basic care offerings, delivering comprehensive support tailored to the resident’s specific requirements.
If your loved one is experiencing mild or early signs of memory loss, you may assume that designated Memory Care is their only choice. It’s not. At Aegis Living, we offer an alternative approach through Transitional Care. Unlike most senior housing providers, we defy the assumption that early signs of memory loss mandate a move into dedicated Memory Care. Our program supports residents who are not ready to move full-time into our Life’s Neighborhood Memory Care. Our communities are designed to safely maintain a sense of independence, enabling those with mild to moderate memory loss to remain in assisted living if that is where they feel most comfortable. Our supportive team members are specially trained to help them tackle memory loss challenges while keeping their independence.
Known for our expertise in Memory Care, we offer a spectrum of options for seniors diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and other dementias. For those with mild to moderate memory loss, we offer transitional Assisted Living. For those with more advanced memory loss, we have a dedicated Memory Care section of our community, called Life’s Neighborhood. Our around-the-clock, compassionate team provides personalized care to meet our residents wherever they are, and our rich programming includes recreational and social activities to keep residents active, engaged, and making new friends. Our team is here to support our residents’ families too; over the decades, we have supported and educated thousands of families through the journey.
If you or your loved one are no longer safe or thriving living independently, Assisted Living offers flexible levels of support and a true community. Our Assisted Living communities are staffed by kind and skilled caregivers, available around the clock for whatever residents need. This may be very little for now but we are also able to accommodate a very high level of care. Meanwhile, with cooking, transportation, housekeeping, and laundry taken care of, residents can relax and enjoy all life has to offer.
In Light Assisted Living, we celebrate the spirit of independence and inspire you or your loved one to live life to the fullest. With a focus on providing the right balance of assistance and autonomy, our dedicated team is committed to helping residents thrive in their warm and welcoming new home. From a robust calendar of engaging activities to a community full of new neighbors and friends to meet, we are here to make life easier and more enjoyable.
