Service Details
Description
Moving Home Minnesota (MHM) helps people move from institutions to their own home in the community. MHM promotes the development and implementation of transition plans that reflect the preferences of people receiving services and the opportunity to receive services in their home in the community.
Lead agencies (counties, tribal nations and managed care organizations) will help the person receiving MHM services select a transition coordinator. The transition coordinator will help create and implement a plan to transition the person back to the community.
Moving Home Minnesota's objectives include:
* Assisting people with transitions from various institutions to community living
* Allowing states to develop, implement and evaluate demonstration and supplemental services not otherwise covered by the state's Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers or State Plan.
* Supporting Tribes and Tribal Organizations with resources to build a sustainable community-based Long-term Services and Supports (LTSS).
With MHM, you can move to:
* A home that is owned or leased by you or your family
* An apartment with a lease
* A Minnesota Department of Health licensed assisted living residence with a lease, or
* A home in a residential setting with four or fewer unrelated people living there.
With MHM, you can get help with:
* Planning your move
* Paying for moving expenses, deposits, equipment and home modifications
* Finding a safe and secure place to live
* Connecting with your community
* Accessing subsidized housing, if available
More information is available on the DHS website.

NL-5000.6500Nursing Home Transition Financing Programs Definition
Programs that are designed to assist institutionalized residents, or those about to be discharged from a hospital to a nursing home, to return to the community to live in a less restrictive setting. Some transition programs are funded using Medicaid and therefore require that eligible participants be Medicaid recipients. Other programs have been created using state or local funds. The programs typically provide case management and, unless other funding sources are available, provide funding for and link program participants to existing home and community based services, home modification programs, assistive technology equipment, assisted living facilities or other supported housing options and/or other needed services.
-
PH-1000.8500Transitional Case/Care Management Definition
Programs that develop, implement, assess and follow up on plans for the evaluation, treatment and/or care of people who are experiencing a specific, time-limited problem such as a transition from hospitalization to independent living and who need assistance to obtain and coordinate the support services that will facilitate the change.
