The goal is to enhance independence and quality of life, enabling veterans to remain in their homes and communities.
Veteran Directed Care (VDC) empowers eligible veterans to manage their own long-term care services through a flexible budget and personalized support.
To qualify for VDC, veterans must be enrolled in the VA health care system and require assistance with activities of daily living, such as bathing, dressing, or meal preparation. Eligibility is determined by the local VA Medical Center, and veterans should contact their VA social worker or primary care provider to assess their specific situation.
