They were able to help me get to my appointments after my accident. Also came in and cleaned house when I was unable. If you are needing help after an accident or surgery. If you need care for an elderly person or just companionship give them a call.

Good workers and friendly. I like my shower cleaned well and they are doing that. No complaints about the vacuuming or dusting. They do the dishes. If I have something different I need help with I can just ask.

Kore Cares has been a huge blessing to me. I live in a remote part of South Dakota and was struggling to find help with personal care and help with upkeep with my home. I was nervous of keeping my independence. Kore Cares took the burden off of me, from Rachael setting things up to Lisa my care giver I feel so peaceful about my independence! I recommend Kore Cares they go above and beyond in there profession!!

We have had Kore Cares aides coming here for close to a year now. They give excellent care and we look forward to seeing them come here. They've been very helpful to us in many ways and they have become like family to us. We highly recommend their services.
