What to Consider About Memory Care in Bentonville
Senior citizens represent just 7.7 percent of Bentonville's population or about 3,795 of the city's 50,000 residents. Despite the area's limited population of older adults, Bentonville is home to several facilities specializing in dementia and Alzheimer's care. The Arkansas Department of Human Services refers to memory care facilities as Alzheimer's special care units. Both assisted living facilities and nursing homes may provide these services. However, regulations vary depending on the property's primary classification.
- State income tax policies affect the cost of living as well as the affordability of memory care. Arkansas does not tax Social Security, military pensions or Railroad Retirement benefits. However, distributions from IRAs and 401(k)s are taxed according to the filer's income bracket.
- Bentonville residents enjoy a low cost of living. Although the area is slightly more expensive than other parts of Arkansas, housing costs are just 18 percent higher than the U.S. average. All other essentials are lower than the national average. Healthcare costs are 15 percent lower than average, which makes Bentonville an attractive area for individuals with medical concerns or chronic illnesses, such as dementia.
- The Bentonville region is home to several world-class medical facilities, including those specializing in brain health and dementia care, such as the Washington Regional Memory Clinic, Mercy Hospital Northwest Arkansas and the Northwest Medical Center - Bentonville, in the event of a medical emergency or illness.
- With summer highs near 90 degrees and winter lows in the mid-20s, memory care facilities in Bentonville must have adequate climate controls and security systems to protect residents from inclement weather.
