What to Consider About Memory Care in Victorville

The California Department of Social Services, Community Care Licensing Division, licenses and monitors memory care facilities in Victorville, ensuring a consistently high standard of care for seniors. This department provides a list of resources for seniors and families, including the state’s long-term care ombudsman program and the regional chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Victorville

  • On a 100-point cost of living index based on national averages, Victorville’s overall cost of living is 40 points below the state norm, making it a financially feasible option for many seniors. To make long-term care affordable for those with limited incomes, the state funds the Medi-Cal Assisted Living Waiver, which can be used toward memory care services.   
  • Seniors living in Victorville don’t pay state income taxes on their Social Security benefits, but all other types of retirement income are fully taxed at some of the highest income tax rates in the nation. While this may affect how much money can be put toward residential dementia care expenses, California has programs to help seniors afford long-term care.
  • According to data compiled by the American Lung Association, the air quality in San Bernardino County, where Victorville is located, is very poor. The city has the lowest quality rankings possible for high ozone days, annual particle pollution and 24-hour particle pollution. Memory care facilities support residents’ health and comfort through measures such as air filtration systems and indoor recreational activities throughout the year.
  • Victor Valley Transit, an initiative of Victorville’s Senior Services Department, provides curb-to-curb transportation services for qualified seniors in the city. This can help seniors attend medical appointments without relying on paid services through their memory care facilities. To schedule services, individuals can call the main office at (760) 948-4021.
  • Victorville is one of the warmest places to live in California, which may appeal to seniors who enjoy spending time outside. Summers are very warm with highs near 100 degrees, although humidity levels are generally within a comfortable range. Winters are mild with daytime temperatures near 60 degrees, and the city gets about a quarter of an inch of snow annually.
  • Two hospitals are located within Victorville, including Victor Valley Global Medical Center and Desert Valley Hospital, offering access to a range of primary and specialty services. While there are only about 135 doctors per capita compared to the national average of 210, health care costs are very affordable at about 17% below national norms.
