What to Consider About Memory Care in Castro Valley

Castro Valley, located in Alameda County, California, is part of the Greater Bay Area and of its 61,000 residents, more than 15 percent are 65 years of age or older. Many seniors in Castro Valley and throughout the state of California require residential memory care for dementia disorders such as Huntington's Disease and Alzheimer's Disease. Those in Castro Valley who require such care are supported by the area's nine memory care facilities. 

Facilities providing memory care and assisted living services to the elderly are officially known as residential care facilities throughout California. They're regulated closely by the California Department of Social Services, which provides similar provisions for both memory care and assisted living services. As such, many residential care facilities offer both levels of care.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Castro Valley

  • Castro Valley and the rest of Alameda County have high ozone pollution levels that may cause health risks to senior 65 and older. Those who have been diagnosed with a respiratory illness or cardiovascular disease may experience their condition worsening as a result of the local air quality.
  • The Castro Valley area is home to world-class medical facilities, including those that specialize in brain health and dementia care, such as Eden Medical Center, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
  • Castro Valley is safer than 54 percent of U.S. cities on average, and its crime rates are considerably lower than those in cities across California. Even so, it's always wise for seniors and their loved ones to discuss what security measures are in place to protect residents as they tour memory care facilities.
  • The cost of living in Castro Valley is more than double the U.S. average and while that is mostly due to the extreme cost of housing, seniors and their loved ones can expect to pay higher rates for room and board costs in memory care facilities throughout the Castro Valley area.
