Veterans Care Coordination

As we gather with loved ones this Thanksgiving, Veterans Care Coordination wants to take a moment to recognize the incredible dedication of family caregivers.

November is National Care at Home Month, a time to honor both professional and family caregivers who give their time, energy, and compassion to care for others. Their commitment often comes at great personal sacrifice, and we are deeply thankful for all they do to help aging loved ones remain safe and comfortable at home.

To every caregiver — paid and unpaid — thank you. Your compassion, patience, and strength make a lasting difference in the lives you touch.

November is COPD Awareness Month, aimed at raising awareness about Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and its effects on millions globally. COPD, which includes emphysema and chronic bronchitis, causes symptoms like shortness of breath and fatigue, making daily tasks difficult. Home care can significantly enhance the quality of life for seniors with COPD while providing peace of mind for their families.

If you need home care support and your loved one is a Veteran or a surviving spouse, they may be eligible for a benefit that may help pay for home care assistance. Call us today to find out more.

Here is his story: https://hubs.la/Q03T1Lc20

Born and raised in Alton, Missouri, Ray grew up in humble beginnings during a time when hard work and family were central to daily life. “He was born at home and grew up with oil lamps and wood stoves — no electricity,” Jodi shared. “They farmed, raised hogs and sheep, sold corn, milo, milk,...

At Veterans Care Coordination, our Core Values guide everything we do — Serving Others, Accountability, and Continuous Improvement.

When asked which value has had the greatest impact on her role, Julie Reynolds, Client Care Specialist, shared:

"The core value of serving others has impacted me because it reminds me that my work is about people, not just tasks. When I choose to serve with humility and care, it builds trust, strengthens relationships, and gives real purpose to what I do."

Julie’s words capture the heart of our mission. At VCC, serving others isn’t just part of our job — it’s what gives meaning to every conversation and every action we take to support Veterans and their families.

The surviving spouse is often overlooked because they were not in the service. But there is a lifetime benefit that covers the surviving spouse if they were married to the Veteran at the time of death and did not divorce or remarry.

If you need home care support and your loved one is a Veteran or surviving spouse, they may be eligible for a benefit that may help pay for home care assistance. Call us today to find out more.

Veterans Care Coordination is proud to honor one of our own, Devin Larzelere, as our Veteran of the Month for October. Devin enlisted in the United States Army right after graduating high school and served from March 2007 to July 2011. At the young age of 18, Larzelere chose to be an infantryman, seeking to be in the thick of battle on the front lines — and he certainly was. Read more about Devin’s journey here:
