The Veteran Friendly Framework (VFF) is a collaboration between Armed Forces charities Royal Star & Garter and Royal British Legion, and NHS Veterans’ Covenant Healthcare Alliance (VCHA), with funding support from the Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust.
We're so proud that our care home has achieved VFF status. We’ve learnt so much in the process, and we’re excited to host the first of many veteran friendly events in the local community.
Home Manager at Oxbow ManorTo achieve VFF status, we are required to meet eight standards. These include noting Armed Forces status within care plans; addressing social isolation; and signposting to support services, such as the local Royal British Legion branch and other charities that provide support for veterans or partners of veterans.
At Care UK, we are committed to offering ongoing support to residents who previously served in the Armed Forces, and their loved ones. We also work closely with local charities, barracks and cadettes, so you can continue to feel connected with those still serving in the Armed Forces.
If you’d like to stay up-to-date with what your local Care UK home is doing to support local veterans, why not attend one of their upcoming events?
Many of our care homes are Veteran Friendly Accredited
