    What to Consider About Memory Care in Covington

    There are more than 130,000 people in Georgia living with Alzheimer's disease and that number is expected to rise to 190,000 in the next decade. People aged 65 and over are most likely to have the disease and in Covington almost 14 percent of the population are in that age range.

    Memory Care Units in Georgia provide accommodation to people with dementia. These facilities must meet a range of specific requirements around staff numbers, staff training and the environment provided to residents and are monitored by the Georgia Department of Community Health. There are seven memory care facilities in Covington and the surrounding area catering to people with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia.

    • The Covington area is home to world-class medical facilities, including those specializing in brain health and dementia care, such as Piedmont Newton Hospital, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
    • Social Security Income is not taxed in Georgia. The state also provides a deduction to people aged 65 and over on income from retirement funds and pensions. This can decrease seniors' tax bills significantly, leaving more money available for a memory care facility.
    • Covington's cost of living is rated at 100 on the Sperling index, which is equal to the national average. The cost of healthcare is rated at 107, seven points higher than average, which may impact the money available to seniors with health conditions.
    • Covington's overall crime rate is higher than 98 percent of U.S. communities. Property crime is particularly high with a rate of 57.89, almost 30 points higher than the Georgia average. Families may wish to ask the staff at the facilities they tour about the steps taken to keep residents safe.
