What to Consider About Memory Care in Covington

The lack of state income tax on Social Security income is just one thing that attracts seniors to Covington and the state of Virginia for retirement and care. The city has a population of just over 10,400 with 14 percent aged 65 and older, some of whom have been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease or dementia. To accommodate them, there are four memory care facilities located close by.

In Covington and the state of Virginia, Alzheimer’s Special Care Units (ASCUs) provide residential care for the 87,000 seniors in the state with cognitive impairments. These units are regulated by the Department of Health and Hospitals to provide room and board, meals and medication administration in a secure environment.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Covington

  • The city of Covington is home to world-class medical facilities, including those specializing in brain health and dementia care, such as the Covington Behavioral Health Hospital, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
  • The cost of living index is based on the national average of 100. In Covington, the cost of living is 105.3 which is slightly higher than the national average and higher than the state average of 96. This may make it slightly challenging for seniors and their families to stay within a budget when paying for memory care within the city.
  • Crime is ranked on a scale from one (low) to 100 (high). In Covington, violent crime is ranked 36.7, which is higher than the national average of 31.1. Property crime is ranked 46.6, which is also higher than the national average of 38.1. This may make seniors and their families feel unsafe when living in and visiting the area.
  • Like many cities in the south, Covington experiences hot and humid summers with average July highs around 92. This may pose a problem for seniors who can’t tolerate the heat or those who have breathing impairments. Winters are short and mild with average January lows around 40 degrees. The city rarely gets any snow.
