Front and Center: Elara Caring’s Veteran-Centric Home Care
Elara Caring is proud to offer comprehensive, compassionate care, support and specialized programs to meet the unique care needs of veterans. That’s why we created Front and Center, a collection of veteran-centric care programs, delivered wherever veterans call home.
We offer Front and Center programs throughout our continuum of care: personal care services, skilled home health, behavioral health and hospice care.
Personal Care Services
Operation Veteran Care provides in-home assistance and home care for veterans. We focus on help with activities of daily living, home safety and personal care. In addition, our Heroes Helping Heroes initiative offers a paid opportunity to veterans to care for fellow veterans. We believe veterans can understand the needs of other veterans in ways that no one else can.
Skilled Home Health and Behavioral Health
Elara Caring is an authorized VA Home Health Provider. Navigating the VA process can be complicated and cumbersome. Our teams in cities where VA hospitals exist can act as partners for veterans, physicians and families as they work to connect veterans to the care they entitled to.
BRAVE is our in-home PTSD recovery program targeting the unique care needs of combat veterans including the transition to home life, medication adherence, navigation of the greater health system and connections to community supports.
PTSD Recovery services are offered in both skilled home health and behavioral health care.
Hospice Care
For veterans suffering from PTSD and also facing end of life, our BRAVE hospice program creates a caring journey for veterans and their families through PTSD and end of life. PTSD can complicate the end of life process for veterans. The process of dying is a challenge for anyone to face, but especially when PTSD is a factor. It is a battle of sorts, and an experience that can trigger combat-like or combat-related stress. Acknowledging the impact PTSD may have for veterans and their loved ones is an important step in mitigating those effects.
Our hospice care teams also participate in the We Honor Veterans program which provides educational tools and resources to promote veteran-centric educational activities, increase our capacity to serve veterans, and increase access to care and improve quality. We Honor Veterans also facilitates veteran pinning ceremonies as an opportunity for us to spotlight a veteran’s service.
We are committed to serving, honoring and elevating care for those who have served.
