What to Consider About Memory Care in Rancho Cucamonga
Rancho Cucamonga, California, is a diverse city where English, Chinese and Spanish are all frequently spoken by its 177,452 residents, 10.4 percent of whom are over 65. To serve seniors with Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia, Rancho Cucamonga has three memory care facilities, and another 17 are nearby in Claremont, Montclair, Chino, Upland, San Dimas, Riverside, Chino Hills and Diamond Bar.
In California, memory care services are provided by housing arrangements called residential care facilities (RCFs) licensed by the Department of Social Services. Most RFC residents are 60 years of age or older, with some exceptions, but RFCs cannot admit anyone who needs 24-hour nursing care. These facilities can support individuals with mild dementia if the resident organizes their own specialized care, such as receiving medical care from a visiting nurse or contracting with hospice agencies to access services that the facility cannot provide.
