I am taking care of a gentleman who is disabled vet. I cook, clean house, apply medication to his legs, feed, bathe, walk and give his dog medications. I was wondering if I am entitled to any compensation?

If he is low income and few assets, he could apply for VA Aid & Attendance benefits to pay you. BUT he would have to show need for bathing, dressing, feeding, walking. Go up to Money and Legal and click on Veterans Assistance.

Thanks for your response. I will check/read it as I know he is eligible for the Aid Assistance as he already has someone come in and give him a bath twice a week. Also the VA is checking into putting in a walk in bath/shower for him so he will have easier access. He is in a wheelchair.
