Granted
The Veteran's disabilities result in the need for regular aid and attendance of another person, warranting special monthly compensation.
The deciding factor: The Board finds that the Veteran meets the criteria for special monthly pension benefits based on the need for aid and attendance due to his service-connected conditions affecting his ability to bathe/shower, tend to hygiene needs, manage medication, and dress.
