Accra Care III is dedicated to enhancing the lives of individuals by offering individualized homecare services and comprehensive support aimed at increasing independence for people who wish to remain in their own homes. Their approach centers on tailored assistance to adults, children, and families who require help due to disability, age, or long-term health needs. Accra Care III provides a wide array of services, including Self-directed Personal Care Assistance (PCA) Choice services. These services are carefully customized, supporting daily living activities such as dressing, grooming, eating, bathing, transfers, mobility, positioning, and toileting for both adults and children. In addition, adult clients can benefit from light housekeeping, laundry, and meal preparation to help maintain a safe and comfortable home environment.
A significant aspect of Accra Care III’s offerings is empowering clients through self-direction. Their Financial Management Services (FMS) make it straightforward for clients, particularly those with long-term care needs or disabilities, to hire and manage their own caregivers. Through programs like Consumer Directed Community Supports (CDCS) and Consumer Support Grant (CSG), clients are able to directly employ support workers and obtain other essential supports needed to continue living in the community on their own terms. Accra Care III’s staff guide clients through this process, taking on financial management responsibilities, so individuals can focus on their wellbeing and daily life.
Accra Care III holds a 245D license, enabling them to offer a wide range of specialized services such as respite care, homemaker services, Individual Community Living Support (ICLS), Individual Home Supports (IHS) without training, IHS with training, and night supervision. For each 245D service, clients are able to choose a trusted, qualified worker best suited to their personal needs, ensuring a high degree of comfort and customization. Special attention is paid to the match between staff and clients, especially for services like IHS with training, where a specially qualified staff member is selected to provide select support. Throughout these processes, a dedicated 245D Accra Service Coordinator collaborates with clients and their county case managers to set up and administer the 245D Waivered Services most beneficial for each individual.
Accra Care III is deeply committed to making these homecare services accessible to clients across all 87 counties of Minnesota, with a presence that supports over 11,000 people in need throughout the state. Their commitment to improving lives is underpinned by a large and compassionate workforce, which includes over 16,000 direct care professionals and administrative staff members. The focus is always on providing a person-centered care experience—whether through the support of a Personal Care Assistant, the guidance of Financial Management Services, or the stability offered by support staff and coordinators. The variety of homecare solutions ensures that children, adolescents, adults, and families—regardless of condition or circumstance—receive the individualized help they need to enjoy a higher quality of life and increased independence.
By offering such a breadth of programs and supports, Accra Care III stands out as a comprehensive provider committed to making home a safe, supportive, and fulfilling environment for all clients they serve. This steadfast dedication to improving daily living circumstances defines the core philosophy of the organization: to empower people through compassionate, specialized, and reliable homecare.
