Capital Caring Health’s Support Services for Veterans Our veterans program provides a full range of services for any life-limiting condition. Services include: Individualized pain and symptom relief plan that addresses medical and psychological issues common in veterans. Disease-specific programs. Medication, supplies and equipment. Assistance identifying and securing resources and benefits for veterans and dependents. Battle Buddy (a veteran or active duty military volunteer) who visits with patients who are veterans. Formal recognition and appreciation for military service. Assistance with military funeral and memorial planning. Caregiver education. Complementary therapies. Grief support.
What We Do
Capital Caring Health relies on Volunteers to call patients, visit in person during non Covid times and volunteers to make deliveries of care packages.
Capital Caring Health has proudly served members of the military since our founding in 1977, providing a full suite of care and services, plus recognition ceremonies and programs to match veteran patients with our veteran volunteers. While Capital Caring Health has recognized and honored our veterans for many years -- what we have discovered is that what veterans and their caregivers most need, is a “boots-on-the-ground” approach. This includes help in accessing more in-home caregiver support and veterans’ benefits, such as disability compensation, pensions and healthcare.
