Frequently Asked Questions
What is memory care?
Memory care is a form of residential long-term care designed specifically for people living with Alzheimer's disease or another dementia. Buildings are secured to prevent wandering, staff are trained in dementia care, and daily routines and activities are structured around cognitive decline.
When is it time to move to memory care?
Common signals are wandering or getting lost, worsening confusion about time and place, missed medications, weight loss, or a caregiver at home who can no longer manage safely. A physician's assessment is the right starting point.
How much does memory care cost?
Memory care typically costs more than standard assisted living in the same market because of higher staffing ratios and the secured setting. Each profile lists the pricing we have on record for that community.
