Could Aid & Attendance Help Cover Care in Wichita?

Aid & Attendance pays toward care, not rent alone. A Wichita veteran or surviving spouse who needs help with daily activities may qualify for up to $3,845 a month toward that care. If income looks too high on paper, read what to do when income seems too high before ruling the benefit out. A spouse of a living veteran can sometimes qualify too; see whether a spouse of a living veteran can get Aid & Attendance.
