HomeNeighborhoodsProspect ParkAssisted Living

Assisted living is for someone who is largely independent but needs a reliable hand with the everyday things — bathing, dressing, medications, meals, getting to appointments. In Minnesota this is the Assisted Living Facility license, issued by the Minnesota Department of Health under Minnesota Statutes Chapter 144G — a single license category, not tiered by resident acuity or evacuation ability the way some states are.

Questions families ask

My parent has been diagnosed with dementia — where do I start in the Twin Cities?

Start by calling the Senior LinkAge Line (1-800-333-2433), operated by Trellis, for care navigation and options counseling. If a memory care community is eventually needed, confirm it holds MDH's 'assisted living facility with dementia care' license (Minn. Stat. 144G.10, subd. 2(b)) — verify this directly through the MDH Health Care Provider Directory rather than relying on marketing materials.

My parent keeps wandering — what safety and licensing questions should I ask a facility?

Ask directly whether the community holds the 'assisted living facility with dementia care' license, which is legally required for any secured dementia unit and mandates dementia-specific staff training under Minn. Stat. 144G.83. A base assisted living license without this designation is not licensed to operate a secured wandering-prevention unit.

I'm burning out as a caregiver for my spouse or parent — what help is available in the Twin Cities?

Trellis, the metro's Area Agency on Aging, funds and coordinates caregiver support and respite programs, and the Senior LinkAge Line (1-800-333-2433) is the free starting point to connect with them. A verified current adult day services rate for the metro was not located in this research and should be confirmed directly with a provider before budgeting.
