Frequently Asked Questions
How can I determine if Basic Care is the right fit?
Basic Care helps those who need a little more assistance with tasks such as meals, housekeeping and medication management retain a high level of independence. Basic Care can be an excellent option for older North Dakota residents who have limited income, need extra assistance with daily activities or tasks, and enjoy the company of others as well as easy access to a variety of activities and events to keep them active and engaged.
What is the Basic Care Assistance Program?
The Basic Care Assistance Program, available through the state of North Dakota, helps qualifying individuals pay a portion of their cost for care while living in a Basic Care community. Certain criteria must be met, including being a resident of North Dakota and eligible for Medicaid. An evaluation of a person’s ability to live independently is also completed.
