According to the Alzheimer's Association, the number of deaths associated with Alzheimer's disease has more than doubled between 2000 and 2019. Of Southfield's 75,431 residents, 19.9% are 65 or older, a population at an increased risk of developing this condition. Despite the information presented by the Alzheimer's Association, the percentage of Alzheimer's-related deaths has been on the decline in Southfield. In 2016, Alzheimer's contributed to 6.36% of all deaths. In 2020, that rate dropped to 5.81%.
As Alzheimer's progresses, seniors often need additional support that can't be readily provided at home. In these cases, families often seek dementia care communities to provide assistance. These communities are typically secure and offer an environment where residents can receive therapies and participate in programming designed to promote memory retention and, ideally, ease the symptoms of the disease. This guide dives into important information about choosing memory care in Southfield, including the cost of care compared to surrounding areas and other types of care. It also discusses benefits and drawbacks, as well as a list of resources that seniors may find useful.

READ MOREIn Southfield, and the rest of Michigan, memory care is regulated by the Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs. This department dictates the regulations that all facilities must follow and ensures compliance. It also offers the general public access to a database of licensed facilities across the state and their licensing information.
Note: Residential memory care is usually offered in assisted living facilities, and in general, memory care rates tend to be 20-30% higher than assisted living rates. No national database currently tracks memory care costs in the United States, so we've estimated the monthly memory care costs listed below by adding 25% to the rates listed in Genworth's 2021 Cost of Care Survey.
Memory care averages $5,259 in Southfield, but exact prices can vary based on the community.
