What to Consider About Memory Care in Eagan

Statewide, the Minnesota Department of Health licenses and monitors memory care providers via the Assisted Living Licensure, Health Regulation Division. The team periodically inspects facilities and ensures they abide by regulations and licensing conditions. It also investigates complaints against senior care communities.  

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Eagan

 

  • Minnesota is one of just a few states and territories to join the AARP Age-Friendly Network. Led by the Minnesota Department of Human Services, community volunteers, elected officials, business owners and professionals from diverse sectors collaborate to enhance the state’s livability for people of all ages. Projects include access to health and support services, affordable senior housing and transportation.  

 

  • With a violent crime rate of 0.96 compared to the U.S. and state averages of 4 and 3.16, Eagan’s residents have a 1 in 1,040 likelihood of experiencing a violent incident. However, the property crime rate is 3.54 higher than the Minnesota average and 5.18 higher than the national average. To keep seniors safe, however, memory care communities feature enhanced security measures, such as locked windows, CCTV and coded doors. Moreover, most facilities have personal alarm systems and around-the-clock staffing.

 

 

  • Overall, yearly living costs in Dakota County are slightly above or in line with the national average. Individuals who rent their property pay about $33,252 per year, representing 102% of the national average. Annually, mortgage-free homeowners pay around $27,600, or 103% of the U.S. average, while those with a mortgage spend roughly $40,080 each year, which aligns with the countrywide outlook. Financial aid via Medical Assistance’s Home- and Community-Based Services waiver programs may lighten the financial burden for memory care residents.
