December Accra is a nonprofit organization that provides individualized home care services to people with disabilities and older adults, most of whom are Medicaid enrollees.
Our person-centered philosophy focuses on treating each person as a unique individual, helping them lead fuller lives. We operate in all 87 Minnesota counties and have service centers statewide. Our self-directed services support children, adolescents, adults and families who need help in their homes.
Our service programs include PCA choice, financial management services, D Waivered Services, individualized mental health counseling, adult rehabilitative mental health services and senior assisted living at High Street House, a quaint assisted-living community located in Lake City.
In every program, our work returns to our mission: to improve lives by providing individualized home care services and support to people at home. Improving coordination between home care providers and physicians is crucial for enhancing patient health outcomes. This information allows physicians to make more informed decisions about treatment adjustments or modifications.
One of the primary benefits of coordination between home care providers and physicians is early detection of issues and prevention of hospital readmissions. By closely monitoring for potential complications and promptly reporting any changes, home care providers can help physicians address potential issues before they escalate and require hospitalization.
