Memory care in Shelby →Paying for TerraBella Shelby with VA Benefits
TerraBella Shelby is a private community, not run by VA, and that is exactly where Aid & Attendance helps: the benefit pays the veteran or surviving spouse, who can use it toward the monthly bill here. Most families pair it with Social Security, a pension, savings, or proceeds from selling a home. If income looks too high on paper, read what to do when income seems too high before ruling the benefit out.
| Household | Maximum Aid & Attendance per month | Left of a $6,496 bill |
|---|---|---|
| Two veterans married, both qualifying | $3,845 | $2,651 |
| Veteran married to a non-veteran | $2,874 | $3,622 |
| Single veteran | $2,424 | $4,072 |
| Surviving spouse | $1,558 | $4,938 |
Compared with the North Carolina median for assisted living of $6,496 a month (CareScout 2025). That is an area figure, not this community’s price; ask TerraBella Shelby for its rate sheet.
