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.
Capital Caring Health Support Services
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.
