Appanoose Community Care Services

Appanoose Community Care Services ACCS is a non profit organization offering Home Care and Lifelines including the "Belle" mobile life

Appanoose Community Care Services has been in operation since 1964 and was one of the first homemaker-health aide services in the state. We first concentrated our efforts primarily with homemakers and home health aides in Appanoose County, but we have expanded as community needs have arisen to also offer Lifelines. Home Care Aides:
We have certified Home Care Aides providing care for the aged and

disabled in their own homes. Aides help with meals, household chores, bathing, errands, and various other personal care needs. Lifeline:
Lifeline is an emergency response system sponsored by Appanoose Community Care Services. This system enables individuals to live independently in their own homes while knowing that around the clock emergency assistance is available to them at a push of a button.

Appanoose Community Care Services may be closed but the friendships we made over the years have not ended. A group of people that worked there met for lunch on Friday. It was so good to see them and hear what everyone was doing. We were already talking about planning a co-op.

THE GOOD CAREGIVERS

On the last Friday of September, Appanoose Community Care Services’ Director Connie Cornett and Office Manager Debbie Kury, with over 80 years of homemaker care service experience between them, were in their spacious office in the ACCS building parallel to Mercy Hospital. The news of the Appanoose Community Care Services closing had already spread throughout the county weeks before. Cornett and Kury are sisters who have each answered their life’s calling while taking separate paths to the same destination. Connie Cornett has been with ACCS since 1972, while her younger sister Debbie Kury, has been with the agency since 1991. On this day, September 29, the last day of Appanoose Community Care Services, the sisters were about to be hosts for one final gathering of their ACCS work family.

Appanoose Community Care Services legacy is that contributing to something beyond ourselves takes hold not over weeks and months, but decades, entire lives. “I never thought I would be with the same agency for over 50 years and Debbie has been here for over 30 years,” said Cornett
