Cindy Stamps, AccentCare in Waco, Texas
with VHC Regional Manager, Nicole Figureo
“I’m a daughter, aunt, niece, and cousin of veteran, I did my research among companies similar services before I started working with VetAssist. I have exclusively worked with VetAssist for my veteras for three years.”
How long have you been working with VetAssist
“Exclusively for 3 years; did her research among companies with similar services”
What’s your experience working with Nicole?
“3 years. Also has a private pay; was doing her referrals, got a call from a girl with a strong NY accent looking for Marlena.”
What do you thing about the service?
“I love it because it’s easy to get in contact. They do what they say they’re gonna do. If there’s a mistake or miscommunication, they own up to whatever the problem is and do whatever they can to get it fixed. I have a Robin’s personal cell, David’s personal cel… They take the time to talk to me. I’ve been having problems with portal. It’s nice to know that if I have a question I will get it answered right away.I’m not patient when it comes to my veterans. “
What has been your experience helping veterans?
“It’s amazing. The VA do the veterans justice, and they are even less accomodating to the spouses. To know that I am able to help somebody to get the benefit and the care that they need to stay in their home is satisfying. I had to talk to a veteran the other day about his wife, and they do not qualify for the benefits because he’s already 100 % disabled. It breaks my heart because here are these men and women who served our country, and I can’t help them.”
“In central TX, we have a couple other agencies – I do not know how they are getting away with it – they are charging veterans $1200-1500 up front without a quarantee that they can get them benefits. The veterans reach out to me later and many tell me they do not qualify, and I say, how do you know you do not qualify?” I am often able to help them trough my VetAssist contact”
“I’m so thankful for Bonnie starting this company. I am very particular with my veterans, and I am gratefull that you guys are around, because you help me help my veterans.”
Saul Avila, SetxHomeCare
“VetAssist is a great service. There are benefits and services available that veterans don’t know about. Nurses and social workers dont’t know about them either, so it’s great to educate the community. The veterans can get services at home, and that’s where they want to be: in their homes.
How long have you been working with VetAssist
“7 years”
What’s your experience working with VetAssist?
“I started with the local Regional Manager. He was a huge help getting this going – the process of helping patients get their documents together, everything they need to get approval. “
What do you thing about the service?
“It’s great! It’s really needed in the community, because if the veterans were to apply for the benefits on their own, they are looking at a year process. We can start services usually within 30-45 days of everything being submitted. They’re able to stay in their own homes longer and get the help they need. “
What has been your experience helping veterans?
“It’s been a honor. They do not want to ask for anything. They want to do it on their own. When we reach out and tell them what’s available, they are very greatful. It means that a lot to me to be able to get it started for them, to make it easier on them. It’s a lot of paperwork.”
