    Wall Street Journal Highlights Veteran's Financial Benefits (Sunrise of Westtown)

      

     Hidden Benefit for Veterans: VA Benefits Make Senior Living Affordable

    Dear Friend of Sunrise Senior Living,

    This weekend's Wall Street Journal featured an article titled "Family Value: A Hidden Benefit for Veterans" in the Personal Finance section on the topic of how VA benefits can help veterans and their spouses cover the cost of assisted living. Were you aware that VA Benefits are one of the flexible financial options available to help fund assisted living?

    Sunrise Senior Living takes great pride in welcoming veterans to live in our communities, and we strive to educate you and your loved ones about the financial options that are available to you. An interview with our senior vice president of Sales & Marketing, Kelly Myers, as well as a Sunrise family give valuable information about VA benefits.

    Here is an excerpt from the article:
    "On a tour of a Sunrise Senior Living facility in Frederick, Md., Ms. McKenzie mentioned that her father was a World War II veteran—a cartographer and first sergeant in charge of 400 men who made maps from aerial photographs used in the invasion of Normandy. She was referred to a law firm that helps families file benefit applications.
    Ms. McKenzie's father now receives about $1,600 a month, tax-free, through the VA program to help meet his assisted-living facility expenses of $5,500 and his additional medical care and insurance premiums, Ms. McKenzie says."

We'd also love to see you at any of our upcoming events!Sincerely, Sara Croes
