Why families choose us

The difference you feel in the first five minutes.

Small by design

Not the rigid, one-size-fits-all routine you'd find out there. Caregivers here know each resident's routine and preferences.

Everything under one roof

Meals, medication management, bathing and dressing help, housekeeping, laundry.

You stay in the loop

Regular updates from the same caregivers, and visits are always encouraged.

A day at Homefelt

What Tuesday actually looks like.

  1. 6:45 am

    Coffee in the kitchen with whoever's up early — usually two or three of the same faces.

  2. 8:30 am

    Breakfast made in the kitchen you can smell from the hallway. Eggs how you like them, not a tray.

  3. 10:30 am

    Cards, a favorite hymn on the radio, the garden beds, a grandkid stopping by on her lunch break.

  4. 2:00 pm

    Quiet hour. A nap in your own room, the ballgame on low, someone checking in without hovering.

  5. 5:30 pm

    Dinner around one table, passed family-style, with the caregivers sitting down too.

  6. 8:30 pm

    Medications, a warm washcloth, lights down — and awake staff in the house all night.

What's included

One monthly rate. No à la carte surprises.

  • Private room, furnished or bring your own
  • Three home-cooked meals plus snacks every day
  • Medication set-up, reminders and administration
  • Bathing, dressing and grooming assistance
  • Help with walking, transfers and toileting
  • Complex medical needs — ostomy, wound care, oxygen and more
  • Housekeeping, laundry and linens
  • 24/7 awake caregivers — never an empty house
  • Coordination with doctors, pharmacies and case managers
  • Activities, outings and family visits
  • Hospice and end-of-life support in place

Wondering about cost?

We're waiver-based. For residents on the CADI waiver, care is covered — the family pays room and board of $500/month.

Not on a waiver yet? Call us and we'll connect you with your county case manager to get started. Private pay is welcome too.

Paying for care

We're waiver-based — most families pay $500 a month.

Minnesota created Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) waivers so people can receive care in a home in their community instead of an institution. If your loved one qualifies, the waiver covers their care here — the only thing left is room and board at $500/month.

CADI

CADI Waiver

For people with disabilities who require nursing-level care in a community setting.

Complex medical needs

We take residents other homes turn away.

  • Ostomy care
  • Wound care
  • Oxygen therapy
  • Catheter care
  • Diabetes and insulin management
  • Hospice and end-of-life support

What a waiver covers

  • Medical, personal and nursing care
  • Meals prepared in the home
  • Transportation to appointments
  • Help with shopping and errands
  • Activities and community outings
  • Staff support services around the clock

What it doesn't cover

  • Room and board — $500/month, paid by the resident
  • Personal utilities, such as a phone bill
  • Convenience services
  • Services already covered by Medicare or another plan

Help with rent & fees

For residents with low or no Social Security income, the MN Housing Support Program may help pay room and board alongside a waiver. Ask us how to apply — we do this all the time.

How do I apply for a waiver?

Just give us a call. We'll connect you with your local county case manager, who walks you through the waiver application step by step.

Families in their own words

The part we can't say about ourselves.

Real texts and emails from residents, their families, and county case managers.

Email we received

I just wanted to send a quick note to say thank you for making this assisted living move such a smooth process. It's not easy, especially with county approvals. I really appreciated how easy you were to communicate with and how quickly everything came together. Good luck to you and Homefelt — I know SP is in good hands.

Questions families ask

Straight answers, no runaround.

Minnesota's Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) waivers help older adults and people with disabilities live in a home in the community instead of a nursing home. If certain criteria are met, the waiver pays for the care and services your loved one needs — including here at Homefelt.
