About the Elderly Waiver Program at Whispering Pines Assisted Living Inc

The Elderly Waiver (EW) Program is a Minnesota program designed to help adults age 65 and older receive long-term care services in a community-based setting rather than a nursing facility. The program provides financial assistance to eligible seniors who need support with daily living while maintaining as much independence as possible.

At Whispering Pines Assisted Living, we support seniors who qualify for the Elderly Waiver by providing assisted living services in a safe, handicap-friendly, family-style environment. We have assisted waiver recipients and their families since 1995, working closely with county case managers to ensure services are coordinated smoothly and appropriately.

What the Elderly Waiver Program Covers

The Elderly Waiver Program helps cover the cost of services required to support daily living for qualifying seniors. The goal is to promote independence while ensuring access to professional care and supervision.

Services supported through the Elderly Waiver may include:

• Assistance with daily living activities
• Medication management and supervision
• Personal care and health monitoring
• Support services provided in an assisted living setting
• Financial assistance to reduce long-term care costs

The program allows seniors to remain in a community environment with access to care, rather than transitioning to an institutional setting.
