assisted living benefits for
veteran's and other disabled
From Lift Chairs To Recliners
It's A Dream Come True
Assisted
living benefits for veteran's amongst other
things are highly expected especially in high class medicare
facilities and or senior housing
homes. You have to
repect what the Vets have done for everyone in the United
States.
My
father was an active military soldier in the branch division we
all know as the Army. The reason I mention this is because he
has told me many stories of friends he knew and knows who have
purple hearts for defending this great country.
Sometimes called uniformed citizens these
now frail elderly men are heroes to most people who know about
them. 
They get many discounts all over the world as
they should. Nursing homes and retirement communities are no
different.
Admissions are not as high as non-vets or
civilians and I even think the government covers part of the
charges. Don't quote me on the Government part though.
Facilitying lobbies tend to be cleaner in thier
hall areas and RN's and LPN's pay more attention to beeping
alarms and calls from the rooms.
Sometime ago I seen a proud Vet in a lift chair
at a chevy dealership I worked at.
He was coming to buy a
custom van complete with scooters and underpaded bedding for
long trips.
I stuck a conversation with him and he told me
all about our great country. Another salesman whom was
originnaly from Canada even had to start listening.
Not knowing that he is guaranteed and
discount on the van he wanted I pulled him to the side and
explained it to him. The commission was small but it was
well worth it to see a smile on his face.
See I'm not sure if he has to go back to
sometype of
senior living community or skilled nursing care
housing.
All I know is that between the pill
dispenser he had in his side pouch and the NCBDC
sticker on his trade-ins back window he is dealing with
some serious issues.
The conversation was about 12 minutes long and
he cramped everything in it. Explaining to me that physical
therapy is overated and he would rather have meds instead. I
don't know about anywhere else but the state regulations in
Georgia are pretty strict about both.
I'm big on Photos and I wish I would have shot
a picture of him with my 4 megapixel digital camera from Sony.
It's a cybershot and it's pretty damn nice.
He was origiannly from Oklahoma and told me
about
texas assisted living mentally ill conrads of his. I
stopped him on that story though because i did not want to hear
about the amercian heroes who are now dealing with things such
as that and alzheimers disease. The man was in great spirits
and i'm glad I had a chance to meet
him.
