Memory care in Ottawa →Paying for Pleasant View with VA Benefits
Because Aid & Attendance is paid to the veteran or surviving spouse rather than to Pleasant View, it can go toward the monthly bill here like any other income. Most families pair it with Social Security, a pension, savings, or proceeds from selling a home. If the family home is a concern, read how the family home affects the net worth limit.
| Household | Maximum Aid & Attendance per month | Left of a $6,219 bill |
|---|---|---|
| Two veterans married, both qualifying | $3,845 | $2,374 |
| Veteran married to a non-veteran | $2,874 | $3,345 |
| Single veteran | $2,424 | $3,795 |
| Surviving spouse | $1,558 | $4,661 |
Compared with the Illinois median for assisted living of $6,219 a month (CareScout 2025). That is an area figure, not this community’s price; ask Pleasant View for its rate sheet.
