At Gold Choice Senior Living, we believe our veterans deserve to spend their golden years living the life they have earned. Whether you or your loved one are a veteran seeking assisted living or memory care, we are proud to provide high-quality, affordable housing and personalized care to Americans who have bravely served our country.
In this blog, we’ll explore how our Gold Choice team helps veterans and their loved ones access affordable senior living, understand their personal eligibility for VA benefits, and take advantage of exclusive cost savings through our Patriot Promotion Program.
Providing the Exceptional Care Our Veterans Deserve
At Gold Choice communities, we aim to create a warm, welcoming environment where residents, including veterans and their loved ones, can grow and thrive. Our assisted living and memory care communities offer high-quality, affordable housing, three delicious, healthy meals a day, a vibrant social calendar, engaging life enrichment activities, and access to individualized care plans tailored to your personal needs.
We’re also proud to employ a team of caring staff so residents can access individualized care that meets their personal living, physical, mental health, and social needs. Gold Choice’s robust resident services include our quality monitor program, which places a dedicated monitor in each community to oversee operations and ensure the highest standards of resident care. Each community also features designated care team members whose job is to make sure each resident receives the appropriate level of personalized attention and support. In addition, our Comforts of Home dietary program provides residents with nutritious, home-cooked meals that promote health while satisfying individual dining preferences.
For veterans, life at our communities also offers frequent opportunities to bond with fellow service members, share stories and support, and build meaningful, lifelong friendships. Our caring staff encourages residents to stay active and engaged and participate in scheduled community activities, form and lead their own groups, enjoy our varied social programming and life enrichment activities, and volunteer at organizations within the community, including local veterans’ groups.
Supporting Veterans with Benefits and Financing
How much does assisted living or memory care cost?
Many times, we find that new residents have been missing out on the veterans benefits to which they’re entitled. At Gold Choice, we encourage prospective residents to take advantage of every financing option available, including VA/Veterans benefits administered through the U.S. Department of Veteran’s Affairs. For example, the Aid & Attendance Benefit helps wartime veterans and surviving spouses pay for expenses related to long-term care. As a Medicaid-approved community, we also accept Medicaid as a financial supplement.
Our caring team is happy to work with you and your loved one to determine your eligibility for veterans’ benefits and/or Medicaid, provide application guidance, and even help you file the paperwork. We’ll also work with you to discover additional financing options that can reduce out-of-pocket costs even more.
Some of the other financing supplements we accept include long-term care insurance, which allows policy holders 65 and older in good health to pay for care not typically covered by health insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid. We also accept life insurance conversions as a financial supplement, which allow you to turn your life insurance policy into a pre-funded account that disburses a monthly payment that can be used to pay for long-term care, as well as life settlements, where you can sell your life insurance policy to a third party for a lump sum.
To keep our communities even more affordable for veterans, we also launched our exclusive Patriot Promotion program, which offers extended move-in specials and exclusive benefits for veterans and their surviving spouses. Our on-site Patriot Promotion Specialist will be happy to walk you and your loved one through the program, including how to access special deals and ways to maximize your savings.
