What to Consider About Memory Care in Sacramento County

Sacramento County occupies a large section of valley floor at the junction of the Sacramento and American Rivers, approximately 100 miles northeast of San Francisco. Just under 14 percent of Sacramento County's 1.5 million people are seniors age 65 and over, many of them are living with a diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease or another form of dementia.

Seniors with dementia who need full-time supervision and care from trained staff often live in one of the county's 52 memory care facilities. In California, all residential care facilities must be licensed through the California Department of Social Services Adult Care Licensing program, which inspects sites and responds to concerns reported by the public.
