Accra Care I

Accra Care I, founded in 2013, works all across Minnesota with over 16,000 staff, helping more than 11,000 clients who need extra support, like older adults, people with disabilities, and those with chronic or behavioral health needs. They focus on home-based care, helping people live better in their communities and homes. Folks can get help with daily living, like dressing, bathing, meals, laundry, and housekeeping, and staff members are matched to what clients need, with Accra Service Coordinators working closely with case managers to set up custom care plans. Accra Care I offers many services, including respite care, homemaker services, Individual Community Living Support (ICLS), night supervision, Personal Care Assistance (PCA) Choice, and home health care. The company is licensed under the 245D framework and provides waivered programs, assisted living, private duty nursing, rehabilitation services approved by Medicare, and in-home or community support for people at all stages, including children and seniors. People looking after a loved one at home can get help hiring and managing their own support workers through Financial Management Services, including help with Consumer Directed Community Supports (CDCS) and the Consumer Support Grant (CSG), and Accra's expertise in employment and support program paperwork makes things easier for clients. Accra Care I also has a wide range of housing options, including low-income and senior apartments, adult foster care, supervised living, boarding care homes, halfway houses, and even emergency shelters and food banks. They've got transportation with wheelchair access, home modifications, vehicle modifications, and environmental accessibility tools to help people stay independent. The dining rooms serve all-day meals with help for special diets, and the environment includes basics like emergency alert systems, furnishings, phones, walking paths, a barber/salon, a garden, and a library. People get 24-hour supervision through a call system if needed. Social programs like movie nights, resident-run activities, and scheduled events keep people active, and there are job openings for care providers too. There's help with mental health for children and adults, substance use disorder treatment, day programs, and even a book club for Minnesota authors. Accra Care I manages to cover a wide range of support, always working to match each service to what suites a person, whether they need help at home, in a residential setting, or with health and daily living, and all under a focus on making life easier and safer for Minnesotans who need it most.
