Accra Home Care helps older adults and people with disabilities by offering care that fits their needs right at home, and they use their own team names and specific words for all their different programs, so you'll hear about things like Accra Service Coordinators or home care services and see unique names for their different care options. They serve all 87 counties in Minnesota, and for over 30 years, they've given help to folks who need support with daily life, including things like bathing, dressing, grooming, eating, moving around, and using the bathroom, and if you need help with chores around the house, meal preparation, laundry, light housekeeping, or transportation, they'll arrange that too, and they even have flexible Personal Care Assistant (PCA) services both at home and out in the community, which can make people more independent and keep them involved.
Accra Home Care covers a lot of services, including home nursing care, senior assisted living, general home care, home health care, memory care, behavioral and mental health services, and support for folks with disabilities or autism, plus help for people with chronic diseases or those dealing with mental illness, and whether you need short-term help or long-term support they can adjust. You'll find Accra has waivered services, like respite care, homemaker services, Individual Community Living Support (ICLS), home nursing, night supervision, and Individual Home Supports (IHS) both with training and without, and their Financial Management Services let people manage their own care through special programs such as Consumer Directed Community Supports or the Consumer Support Grant, and their online Accra Access/Mobile platform allows clients to check in or keep track of their care.
Their licensed apartment community is built to feel home-like, with furnished rooms and common spaces like a dining room, a kitchenette, a small library, an arts room, a telephone-equipped common area, Wi-Fi/high-speed internet, cable or satellite TV, a garden, outdoor space, and walking paths. The facility fits 21 residents and includes things like a beauty salon and barber, movie nights area, and a dining room that serves meals all day and even takes dietary needs like diabetes or allergies into account. The place offers laundry and dry cleaning, has housekeeping, regular scheduled activities, and lets residents pitch in to run programs, which gives folks a way to stay busy and feel part of a group.
Accra assigns every client an Accra Service Coordinator who works with you and county case managers to set up and manage care, and they make sure each care plan fits individual needs, whether you need assisted living services such as medication help, memory care, personal care, or support with activities like bathing, eating, transfers, and walking, and if you need support at home, Accra will send qualified caregivers matched to the situation. They maintain 24-hour supervision and a 24-hour emergency call system to keep residents safe, plus medication management for those who need it. Their services are licensed in Minnesota, but Medicare only applies when specific certification is met, so families need to double-check their options if health insurance coverage is important.
Accra Home Care employs a very large team-over 16,000 workers-and is the biggest homecare provider in the state, focusing on meeting the needs of seniors and people with disabilities no matter where they are in Minnesota. Through a client-centered way of working and a self-directed approach, they aim to model diversity, equity, and inclusion, and someone can find help whether they want mental health support, adult foster care, home health, or simply need peace of mind knowing loved ones are safe at home.
