What to Consider About Memory Care in Westland

In 2018, there were over 180,000 persons 65 years of age or older in Michigan with Alzheimer's disease. In Westland, where seniors in this age group account for about 16 percent of the city's 80,000 residents, there are a variety of memory care facilities available to provide compassionate care for seniors with dementia. Two of these facilities are in Westland and nine more are in towns close by, such as Canton and Northville.

Michigan laws don't use the term memory care facility. Instead, they may refer to Westland's memory care facilities as Homes for the Aged (HFAs) or Adult Foster Care (AFC). Facilities offering memory care must follow the same rules as all other HFAs or AFC providers.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Westland

  • Westland's cost of living is 2 percent cheaper than the national average, which may leave seniors with dementia and their families with more funds available to pay for memory care services.
  • Michigan's tax policies offer several benefits for Westland seniors, including tax-free Social Security retirement income. On top of the regular personal deduction of $2,900, persons over age 65 can also take an additional $1,900 exemption on their state returns, enabling them to save even more money for memory care.
  • According to a 2018 American Lung Association report, Wayne County's grade for ozone worsened from a D to an F since the previous report, while its grade for particle pollution held steady at a C. These high levels of air pollution can place seniors' health at risk, even if their time spent outdoors may be limited while living at a memory care facility.
  • Property and violent crimes in Westland occur at a combined rate of 20 offenses per 1,000 citizens. Families considering memory care facilities in the area may be happy to hear that Westland has less criminal activity than other communities with similar population size.
