What to Consider About Memory Care in Kingman

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Kingman

  • Seniors in Kingman don’t pay state income taxes on their Social Security benefits, although they pay taxes on other forms of retirement income, with rates varying from 2.50% to 2.98%. This may affect how much they can spend on local memory care expenses.
  • Kingman has hot summers with daytime temperatures averaging between 88 and 96 degrees Fahrenheit, and noticeable humidity is rare. Winters are mild with daytime temperatures ranging from 53 to 62 degrees Fahrenheit, and the city only sees a couple of inches of annual snowfall. Memory care facilities in this city organize outdoor activities and events throughout the year, letting residents enjoy the warm weather.
  • Kingman Area Regional Transit operates four fixed bus routes throughout the region. Services are available Monday through Saturday, and curb-to-curb services are available to those who qualify. Riders can purchase fares for single boarding, as well as daily and monthly passes, and discounted rates are available to seniors and veterans. This may enable some families to visit loved ones in memory care.
  • Kingman Regional Medical Center is in Kingman proper. This hospital is the only nonprofit hospital in the county and is the largest healthcare provider in the northwest region of the state. It offers a broad range of specialties, including a neurology department that provides assessments and treatment for disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease, Huntington’s disease and Lou Gehrig’s disease.
  • Seniors in Kingman may benefit from the Dementia Friendly Arizona initiative. The Banner Alzheimer’s Institute and Banner Sun Health Research Institute lead this initiative and help seniors and families in the state connect with research opportunities, community-based supports and information related to dementia treatment.
