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.
