  • You can discuss your options with your lead agency or contact Rainbow Home Healthcare at 651-778-0562. We will provide more information and guide you through the transition to CFSS.

  • If you're using PCA or CSG services, you will continue receiving them for up to six months while transitioning to CFSS.
