What to Consider About Assisted Living in Cordova

Cordova is a small, Shelby County community that has been mostly annexed by the city of Memphis, Tennessee. The community is just a few miles northeast of Shelby Farms Park, where seniors can enjoy the fresh air while traversing 40 miles of paved and unpaved trails across the 4,500-acre urban park, or take part in one of the many seasonal activities hosted there when wanting to spend the day outside of their assisted care living facility (ACLF).

As in the rest of Tennessee, Cordova ACLFs must provide room and board, along with any services needed for seniors to age in place. Licensing for ACLFs is regulated by the Tennessee Department of Health, Board of Licensing Health Care Facilities. Seniors needing assisted living care in Cordova can choose from one of 31 assisted living facilities in Shelby County.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Cordova

 

  • Seniors who are sensitive to air quality should be aware that Shelby County, including Cordova, is the only county in Tennessee to receive an F rating by the American Lung Association for the number of high ozone days.
  • The Cordova area has no facilities from which to choose in the event of a medical emergency or illness, with the nearest major hospital located Germantown.
  • The crime rate in Cordova is higher than the national average, with the chances of being the victim of a violent or property crime calculated at 1 in 43. Violent crime, in particular, is high in the area.
  • Seniors without personal transportation can take advantage of the Memphis Area Transit Authority (MATA). Those over the age of 65 can take advantage of reduced fares with a MATA ID.
  • The cost of living in the area is the same as the national average, with higher costs associated with health care and transportation and lower average costs in every other category.
  • Cordova's climate is moderate, with highs ranging between 51 and 92 degrees Fahrenheit and lows averaging between 33 and 74 degrees. The area sees around 23.4 inches of rainfall each year.

Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in Cordova

Seniors on a budget may be able to qualify for financial assistance from TennCare, the Tennessee Medicare program. Through TennCare, some of the expenses associated with assisted living can be covered through CHOICES, the state's Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) waiver. This waiver allows for some services to be self-directed, giving seniors the option of hiring friends or family as personal care attendants.

Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on our Assisted Living in Tennessee page.
