Paying for Brookdale West Orange with VA Benefits

Because Aid & Attendance is paid to the veteran or surviving spouse rather than to Brookdale West Orange, it can go toward the monthly bill here like any other income. Families usually combine it with savings, retirement income, the sale of a home, or long-term care insurance. Brookdale West Orange families can find the benefit amounts and filing rules in our Aid & Attendance fact sheet.

HouseholdMaximum Aid & Attendance per monthLeft of a $8,710 bill
