What to Consider About Memory Care in Morton

In Tazewell County, a little over 10 percent of Medicare recipients aged 65 and over have been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease or dementia. Some of these seniors may reside in Morton, where about one in five of the city's 16,000 residents are 65 years and over. 

The Morton region is home to six memory care facilities, with one in Morton and the others in nearby cities like Peoria and Washington. Some of these memory care facilities, like the one in Morton, are independent and are solely dedicated to dementia services. These facilities may also be called supportive living facilities. Memory care services may also be located in assisted living facilities that are licensed to provide dementia care.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Morton

  • In Illinois, seniors do not pay state income taxes on any type of retirement income. Because they hang on to the entirety of their Social Security benefits, pension income and income from retirement accounts, they may be able to put more money toward memory care in Morton.
  • While healthcare costs, including doctor's visits and hospital stays, are a little higher in Morton than in the rest of the nation as a whole, the overall cost of living in the city is about 7 percent below the national average. This may make the city a good option for families and seniors with restrictive budgets.
  • Morton's crime rate is considerably lower than that of similarly sized communities across the country, with a violent rate that is on par with the national average and a property crime rate that is lower than average. Even so, families may want to find out how the memory care facility they choose keeps residents safe.
  • Summers in Morton are very hot and humid, and winters are very cold. Over the course of a year, temperatures range between 19 degrees and 85 degrees. Memory care facilities keep residents safe and comfortable by providing individual climate control in residents' rooms.
