The county line question
North Mankato sits in Nicollet County, while Mankato is in Blue Earth County and Oakwood is in Waseca County. Families sometimes worry that crossing county lines complicates things. For private-pay residents it changes nothing.
For Elderly Waiver, you begin where you live now. That means Nicollet County Health and Human Services in St. Peter, or your senior health plan’s care coordinator. The Senior LinkAge Line at 800-333-2433 can confirm the first call to make.
Whether Oakwood accepts Elderly Waiver, and from which counties, has not been confirmed by ownership. The real answer replaces this note before launch.
