Questions families ask

Independent living vs. assisted living vs. memory care — how do I know which one my parent needs?

Independent living is unlicensed housing with no care services; assisted living is a licensed setting (Chapter 144G) providing help with daily activities and some health services; memory care is the separately licensed 'assisted living facility with dementia care' category for residents needing secured, dementia-specific care. The right fit depends on a functional assessment of daily living needs, cognitive status, and safety risk, not just preference.

Assisted living vs. in-home care — which is better for a parent who wants to stay independent?

In-home care lets a parent remain in their own home with support delivered through the Elderly Waiver (personal care, homemaker, home health aide) or private-pay caregivers, while assisted living moves a parent into a licensed community with built-in staffing, meals, and social programming. The better fit depends on the level and predictability of care needed, home safety, and cost once care hours increase significantly.

What license does an assisted living facility need in Minnesota?

Every assisted living community in the Twin Cities must hold an Assisted Living Facility license issued by the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) under Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 144G. This has been mandatory statewide since August 1, 2021, replacing the older, looser 'Housing with Services' registration model. Facilities must also employ an assisted living director credentialed by the Board of Executives for Long Term Services and Supports.
