Memory care services may be offered in assisted living facilities, which the state refers to as housing with services establishments, and they register annually with the Department of Health.
- Minnesota is one of the few states that tax Social Security income, along with withdrawals from retirement savings accounts and income from public and private pensions. This may leave less money in the budget for memory care expenses in Apple Valley.
