What to Consider About Memory Care in Oak Park
Oak Park, Illinois, has a population of around 52,000 residents, with approximately 16 percent of those citizens either 65 years of age or older. Oak Park's seniors with some form of dementia can choose from nine memory care facilities in the community. These memory care facilities are assisted living and other residential facilities that are authorized to accommodate those with Alzheimer's or other dementias through an Alzheimer’s special care unit.
Furthermore, the Oak Park area is advantageously located within ten miles of two of the state's three regional Alzheimer's disease assistance centers, or ADA centers, located in nearby Chicago. These ADA centers employ a wide range of physicians, researchers and social workers that specialize in dementia care to give aid to 220,000 seniors with Alzheimer's disease in Illinois.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Oak Park
- The Chicago metro area is ranked amongst the top 24 most polluted cities by ozone. Because Oak Park is less than 10 miles from Chicago, its air quality might cause seniors with chronic bronchitis or asthma to experience worsened symptoms.
- The Oak Park area is home to world-class medical facilities, including those specializing in brain health and neurological care such as Rush Oak Park Hospital, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
- Family members of those searching for memory care in Oak Park might wish to be aware of Illinois' tax-friendliness. Families of elderly loved ones or seniors themselves may be able to put more money toward memory care services because of the state's retirement income tax cuts.
Memory Care Laws and Regulations in Oak Park
Oak Park-area memory care communities must adhere to the comprehensive set of state laws and regulations that all memory care communities in Illinois are required to follow. Visit our Memory Care in Illinois page for more information about these laws.
