    What to Consider About Memory Care in South Windsor

    Throughout the state of Connecticut, more than 75,000 seniors have been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. As 17.2 percent of its 26,000 residents are aged 65 years and older, the town of South Windsor and its surrounding communities offer eight memory care facilities for seniors with cognitive impairments. In Connecticut, these facilities are known as Alzheimer's Special Care Units (SCUs) and are specially licensed by the state's Department of Public Health to provide care for individuals with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia.

    • The cost of living in South Windsor is 18.5 percent higher than the U.S. national average, largely due to higher housing and transportation costs. This is something families looking to transition a loved one into a memory care facility may want to consider when budgeting.
    • Crime rates are lower in South Windsor than they are on average nationally. On a scale from one to 100, with 100 being high crime, South Windsor receives a 15.2 for violent crime and a 23.6 for property crime, compared to national averages of 31.1 and 38.1 in the same categories. This may offer peace of mind to seniors living in SCUs, as well as their families.
    • Winters in South Windsor do get cold, with temperatures dropping to lows below 20 degrees and about 38 inches of snow expected to fall each year. It is important to ensure a memory care facility has appropriate safety measures in place to keep its residents safe in harsh conditions.
    • South Windsor is situated in the Hartford metropolitan area, which is home to world-class medical facilities, including those specializing in brain health and dementia care, such as the Manchester Memorial Hospital and Hartford Hospital, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
