Questions families ask

My spouse needs more care than I can provide at home — how do I protect our finances?

Minnesota's Community Spouse Asset Allowance (Minn. Stat. 256B.059) lets a healthy spouse protect between roughly $32,532 and $162,660 in assets, plus a Minimum Monthly Maintenance Needs Allowance of income between about $2,705 and $4,066.50 per month, when a spouse enters Medicaid-covered long-term care — figures that should be reconfirmed for the current year with a county financial worker or elder-law attorney.

My parent fell and can no longer live alone — what should we do first?

Start with a call to the Senior LinkAge Line (1-800-333-2433) to request a MnCHOICES assessment, which determines whether a nursing-facility level of care is needed and opens the door to Elderly Waiver-funded in-home services, adult foster care, or licensed assisted living, depending on the assessed level of need and the family's preference.

What senior care options exist in Hennepin County?

Hennepin County, home to Minneapolis, Bloomington, Edina, Minnetonka, Eden Prairie, Plymouth, Maple Grove, and St. Louis Park, has the metro's widest concentration of licensed assisted living and memory care communities, anchored by the Abbott Northwestern (Allina Health) and University of Minnesota Medical Center (M Health Fairview) hospital systems. All licensing, Medicaid waiver, and ombudsman resources described for the metro apply the same way in Hennepin County as elsewhere, since Minnesota regulates and funds these programs at the state level.
