The license is valid for 1 year.
Yes. It is called a provisional license. After the application is completed and approved, the applicant will receive a provisional license. Once they begin to provide services to a resident, they must notify the department within two days. The department must conduct an initial survey of the provisional licensee within one year. If the provisional licensee has a satisfactory survey, they will be granted the assisted living (with dementia care) license. See Ch. 144G.09 MN Statutes and Ch. 144G.16 MN Statutes. (This does not apply to conversion applicants).
