Our Veterans’ Healthcare Services 

Our services are designed to help veterans live in their own homes for as long as possible while also providing support to caregivers and families.  

We will work with your Veterans Affairs (VA) provider, case manager, and physician to develop a care plan tailored to your needs. Our team of professionals can even handle all the necessary prior-authorization, billing, and administrative responsibilities surrounding your care.  

Assistance with Daily Living Activities 

We are happy to hire a friend or family member of the veteran to offer services at home. If the veteran does not have a specific request, we will collaborate with the vet and their family to find an excellent match among our current staff at TRU Healthcare. TRU Healthcare conducts a comprehensive background check for all in-home caregivers, including a criminal study, personal interview, reference verification, and competency evaluation. All employees working with clients receive thorough training. 

Just a few of the activities of daily living we can assist with include: 

  • Assistance with meal preparation and feeding  
  • Maintaining a safe living environment  
  • Getting in and out of bed safely  
  • Daily personal care (toileting, bathing, shaving)  
  • Light housekeeping  
  • Laundry  
  • Shopping and errands  
  • Social support  
  • Accompany on outings and appointments  

Empowering veterans to remain independent is a crucial part of our mission, and we believe that every veteran deserves the best care possible. 

Skilled Nursing Services 

Our skilled nursing services for veterans recovering from an illness or injury offer the convenience of nursing services while remaining in the comfort of their own homes. These visits are provided by a trained professional, such as a registered nurse or licensed practical nurse, who will work with your physician to ensure successful recovery. Skilled nursing services may include:  

  • Medication management  and monitoring
  • Pain management  
  • Wound care and dressing changes  
  • Bowel and bladder care 
  • Assistance with chronic disease management

While we are dedicated to providing compassionate and personalized care, we also understand that the needs of veterans may change over time. That’s why our team continuously evaluates and updates their care plan as needed to ensure the best possible outcomes for each individual.
