Aliso Viejo is in Orange County, where more than 84,000 people were living with dementia in 2018. Most of them were seniors age 65 or older. Although fewer than 10 percent of Aliso Viejo's approximately 50,000 residents belong to this age group, Aliso Viejo and its neighboring towns offer more than 170 memory facilities to serve seniors with dementia.
The California Department of Social Services, Community Care Licensing Division, licenses memory care facilities in Aliso Viejo as Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly (RCFEs). Facilities admitting persons diagnosed with dementia must meet special requirements for adequate supervision, enhanced safety and an appropriate activity program.
