Located in a state where 140,000 have been identified to have cognitive impairments, Staunton has five memory care facilities in the area to help accommodate these individuals.

In Virginia, memory care facilities are regulated by the Virginia Department of Social Services. These dementia care units can be found in Assisted Living Facilities (ALFs) that have at least two direct care staff trained in dementia care awake and on-duty at all times.
