Providers with a basic home care license are licensed by the Minnesota Department of Health. These providers can assist with most activities of daily living, in a person's home. Basic home care licensed providers may be individuals or organizations and are trained to assist people who, because of an illness, disability, or physical condition, cannot perform the tasks for themselves. This type of service does not require a nurse. Staff of the licensed basic provider may:
  • Assist with dressing, eating, grooming, toileting and bathing;
  • Provide standby assistance for safety;
  • Provide verbal or visual reminders to take regularly scheduled medication;
  • Provide verbal or visual reminders for treatments and exercises;
  • Prepare modified diets ordered by a licensed health professional; and
  • Assist with laundry, housekeeping, meal preparation, shopping, or other household chores if also providing one of the other tasks listed above
The workers performing the tasks may be individually licensed or unlicensed. Licensed agencies are responsible for providing additional training for their workers as required by home care laws.
