Central Illinois veterans deserve more than they ask for. Angels Over Us provides nurse-managed, compassionate in-home care — and helps families navigate VA benefits so the cost of that care doesn't fall entirely on you.
Veterans live in every Central Illinois community we serve. Many of them are aging at home with injuries, chronic conditions, PTSD, or the early stages of dementia — and many of their families are carrying that weight alone.
At Angels Over Us, we believe that caring for a veteran is one of the most meaningful things we can do. Our founder, Lani Cabral-Pasao — a registered nurse and Certified Dementia Practitioner — personally oversees care plans for every veteran client. We treat your loved one the way we would want our own family treated.
We also help families understand and access VA benefits that can significantly reduce the out-of-pocket cost of care — because too many veterans and their families don't know what they're entitled to.
From daily companionship to specialized dementia care, our nurse-supervised caregivers deliver the right level of support — tailored to each veteran's unique history, condition, and preferences.
Meaningful companionship, conversation, and emotional support to combat isolation — especially important for veterans living alone or adjusting to civilian life.

Learn moreMany veterans and their families leave significant benefits unclaimed simply because they don't know they exist. Here are the key programs to understand.
A VA pension benefit that provides additional monthly income to help pay for in-home care. Many veterans and surviving spouses qualify but never apply.
The VA's own program providing in-home care for veterans who need assistance with daily activities. We can coordinate alongside these services.
For post-9/11 veterans with serious injuries — provides stipends to family caregivers. We help families understand how to supplement this with professional care.
The VA offers limited respite care hours for veteran caregivers. We can fill the gaps when VA hours run out or don't match your schedule.
Not sure which VA benefits your loved one qualifies for?
We help families navigate VA benefit applications as part of our care coordination. Call us and we'll walk through the options together — no obligation.
Every veteran's care plan is developed by a registered nurse — Lani Cabral-Pasao, our founder and Certified Dementia Practitioner — ensuring clinical-grade oversight.
Our rule: you will never be cared for by someone you have not personally met and approved. Veterans and their families have full control over who enters the home.
Every caregiver undergoes thorough background checks, credential verification, and drug screening. Fully licensed, insured, and bonded.
For urgent situations — hospital discharge, caregiver no-show, sudden decline — we can mobilize a caregiver the same day you call.
Angels Over Us was founded by Lani Cabral-Pasao, a Filipino-American registered nurse who carries a deep connection to the Filipino community. We hold a particular commitment to serving Filipino veterans — including those who served with the Philippine Commonwealth Army and their families who now live in Central Illinois.
We understand the specific VA recognition history for Filipino WWII veterans, the cultural expectations around family caregiving, and the value of having a caregiver who shares your language, values, and background. Tagalog-speaking caregivers are available upon request.
