For many families, memory care ends up being something they use over a longer period of time as needs change. At Options Home Care, memory care can be paid through private pay, long-term care insurance, or in some cases Medicare Part C Advantage Plans, depending on what someone qualifies for and what their plan covers.
Long-term care insurance is meant to help people plan ahead for care they may need later on. These policies are usually bought while someone is still working and are meant to help with the cost of ongoing help with daily activities if things become harder due to memory issues, long-term illness, or physical limitations. In many cases, the coverage can be used for care at home or in other care settings.
When someone meets the requirements of their policy, long-term care insurance may help cover some of the cost of ongoing care. Our staff works with insurance companies to check what’s covered, help with claims, keep records of services, and support families through the process. The goal is just to make the paperwork side easier and help families use the benefits they have.
Activities of Daily Living, frequently referred to as ADLs, are the essential tasks required for personal care and independent living. They are commonly used by care professionals to evaluate whether an individual may need additional assistance at home. These tasks generally include:
Because ADLs provide insight into a person’s functional abilities, they are often used to determine eligibility for insurance benefits and care programs. Most long-term care insurance policies require assistance with at least two ADLs before benefits are paid. Some veterans’ care programs may require support with three ADLs to qualify.
If your loved one is starting to have trouble with these tasks, we can help you look at what care options might fit their situation and walk you through things like coverage and planning for what comes next.
Home care assistance is available to many veterans through the VA Homemaker and Home Health Aide Care benefit. This program helps eligible veterans get non-medical support at home so they can stay there and still get help with daily tasks. Care can include things like help with bathing, getting dressed, personal hygiene, preparing meals, light housekeeping, and other everyday routines.
Options Home Care is an approved VA community care provider. Some home care services may be covered through the Department of Veterans Affairs for eligible veterans. We help veterans get the support they need while staying at home in a familiar setting.
Veterans who wish to qualify for these services generally must:
After approval, we stay in contact with the VA and the social worker to help make sure care is set up and continues as needed. We can also help families understand the steps for enrollment and approval.
Additional assistance may be available through programs such as VA Aid and Attendance. Depending on eligibility requirements, these benefits can help veterans and surviving spouses cover the cost of ongoing non-medical care provided in the home.
For many families, home is where a loved one feels most comfortable. In-home memory care lets seniors with memory loss stay in their own homes while getting help with daily needs. Instead of moving somewhere new, they can remain in a familiar place and still receive support as needed.
Caregivers help with personal care, daily routines, supervision, and spending time with the person during the day. Since it’s usually one caregiver working with one individual, they can get to know the person a bit more over time and adjust support based on what they need. This can feel more personal compared to larger care settings, where care is often shared between more people.
