Under this program, you must visit your VA PCP and ask for a, "Consult for Home Care Services". Your PCP will submit a referral for a home visit and it will be scheduled. Once the VA social worker comes out a review with the Medical Directors will be completed. Once you are deemed eligible, you will provide them with, "Safe Hands In Home Care Service",  as your preferred provider. Once Safe Hands receives the authorization for care, service will be provided immediately.
