History
Established in 2000.
Jay and Melody Vachal founded Arise Cares in 2000 to improve the personal care services available to their son, Isaac, who has Cerebral Palsy and is blind. About that same time, Melody became the primary caregiver for her father. In response to his care needs, Arise Cares began offering in-home care and living assistance for elderly, chronically ill, or disabled people and their family caregivers. Today, Arise Cares, headquartered in St. Cloud, has over 200 caregivers providing services to Central Minnesota communities.
