Rapid City is the county seat of Pennington County, set along Rapid Creek at the eastern edge of the Black Hills. We help families across downtown, North Rapid, West Boulevard, Robbinsdale and Canyon Lake.

South Dakota does not license agencies that only provide non-medical help at home, so ask any agency about its insurance, background checks and caregiver training before care starts.

Tell us where in Rapid City you are and what you need, and we’ll recommend options that serve your area.
