What to Consider About Memory Care in Redding

The California Department of Social Services operates the California Senior Care Licensing Program that oversees and regulates all memory care facilities in Redding and throughout the state of California. Seniors and their family members can view its online database that lists all details for each facility, including inspection reports and violations. 

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Redding

  • The crime rate in Redding is much higher than the national average. Using a 100-point index system, the violent crime rate in Redding is 36.2, compared to the national average of 22.7. The property crime rate is 59.8, also a bit higher than the national median of 35.4. Seniors residing in memory care communities don’t need to worry about the high crime rate, as most of these facilities provide surveillance systems, security systems and controlled access points. 
  • Redding has a temperate climate with hot, dry summers and mild winters. The city experiences around 249 days of sunshine each year, which is much more than the national average of 205 sunny days. The majority of memory care facilities offer secure outdoor courtyards where residents can relax and enjoy the sunshine. 
  • There are three major hospitals in Redding that provide a range of medical services. These hospitals are Mercy Medical Center, Vibra Hospital of Northern California and Shasta Regional Medical Center. All three hospitals provide medical services to meet the needs of seniors and Vibra Hospital of Northern California specializes in rehabilitation. 
  • The cost of living is much higher in Redding than the national average. On a 100-point index, Redding ranks at 107.8. However, groceries and transportation both cost slightly less in Redding compared to the national average. Seniors living in memory care facilities have fixed monthly expenses for accommodation and meals, making it easier for them to have a budget in place. 
  • There are 232 physicians per 100,000 people in Redding, which is higher than the national average of 210. This gives seniors a choice of medical care providers and ensures that it is easy for them to access medical care.
