How referrals work
Every step happens by email, so families and case managers always have a written record.
Email the referral
Send the person's details, waiver type, home needs, support plan, MnCHOICES assessment and any other documents that show their needs to referrals@
lakelandcareservices.com. We review it
We look at care needs and preferred city, and check them against our current openings.
We reply with next steps
If there's a good fit, we set up a visit to the home.
Move-in
We agree a move-in date with the family and case manager and handle the paperwork together.
Send a referral
Fill this out and it goes straight to our referrals inbox. We reply by email.
Questions case managers ask
How quickly can someone move in?
It depends on the paperwork and the opening. Once we have a complete referral, we reply by email with fit and next steps, set up a visit, and then work with the case manager and family on a move-in date.
What do you need in a referral?
Client initials, county, care needs, the home or area they'd like and when they need to move. The support plan and MnCHOICES assessment help us answer faster. You can send those by email after the form.
Which counties do you serve?
Referrals are welcome from any county. If the person is interested in one of our homes, send the referral and we'll take it from there.
How is rent covered?
We accept GRH (Housing Support). Rent is based on income, so residents keep part of their income for personal use.
Are the homes wheelchair accessible?
Some are. If the person uses a wheelchair or walker, say so in the referral and we'll point you to the right home.
Are bedrooms private or shared?
It depends on the home and the current opening. Ask about a specific home and we'll tell you what's available.
Is there staff around the clock? Do you help with medications?
Yes. Staff are on site 24 hours a day, and trained staff help with medications and keep schedules on time.
Can the person and their family visit first?
Yes. When there's an opening that fits, we set up a visit before move-in.
Email us for the fastest reply.
Send us a short email saying what you're interested in. It helps to include the client's waiver or payment type, the city or area they'd like to live in, and when they need to move.
