What to Consider About Memory Care in Hart County

Around 25,794 people live in Hart County, Georgia, and 21.4 percent of that population is age 65 or older. By 2025, according to the Alzheimer's Association, there will be nearly 200,000 seniors in the state, some of whom will require specialized care for dementia as they age.

The Georgia Department of Community Health is responsible for regulating and licensing memory care units that provide extra services in a robust assisted living setting to those seniors who have cognitive impairment. In Hart County, one of these MCUs is in Hartwell, and another one is in Greensboro.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in

  • On a scale with the median cost of living at 100 for the United States and Georgia, Hart County is 11 points lower at 89. Housing has the lowest rating with 75, as opposed to 92 across Georgia, and groceries are reasonable at 91.9. Healthcare, however, was 22 points above the median, so families checking into MCUs should keep that in mind.
  • Hart County gets 49 inches of rain per year, and the national average is 10 inches lower. Snow is a rarity in the county, which receives 1 inch or less annually. Summertime highs climb to 90 degrees, and the wintry lows fall to 31. Sperling's Comfort Index for Hart County is 67 out of 100, 13 points better than the U.S. average, and should be comfortable for seniors.
  • State tax laws help people aged 65 and older, as Social Security dividends and the first $65,000 of income earned annually after retirement are exempt from taxes. Seniors also may receive deductions and exemptions for property taxes, and the low 4 percent state sales tax can result in extra spending power for healthcare.
  • The national averages for property and violent crimes are 38.1 and 31.1 respectively. Hartwell's figures are higher, with a 47.1 for property crime and a 49.6 for violent crime. Memory care units provide additional security with locked doors, closed-circuit cameras and guards, so patients can't wander off, and trouble can't enter the facility.
