What to Consider About Memory Care in Cheektowaga
Cheektowaga is home to around 87,000 people and more than 19 percent are aged 65 or older. It's located just 7 miles from the Center of Excellence for Alzheimer's Disease in Western New York, one of 10 centers of excellence created to provide care for the 400,000 New York residents living with the disease.
There are also 11 memory care facilities in the Cheektowaga area providing accommodation to people with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. These facilities, licensed by the state's Department of Health, are a type of Special Needs Assisted Living Residence and must meet additional staffing and building requirements.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Cheektowaga
- The Cheektowaga area is home to world-class medical facilities, including those specializing in brain health and dementia care such as St. Joseph Campus, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
- Buffalo-Cheektowaga tied first in the State of the Air 2018 report for the cleanest metropolitan area in the U.S. for 24-hour particle pollution. However, Erie County received a failing grade for ozone pollution, which could impact the health of seniors in Cheektowaga who have respiratory conditions.
- Winters in Cheektowaga can be harsh. The average low temperature in January is 18 degrees, and the town gets around 91 inches of snow each year. There are only 157 days of sunshine each year, 48 fewer than the national average, and in July the average high is 80 degrees. Families should ask staff at facilities they tour how residents are kept comfortable during extreme weather.
- The cost of living in Cheektowaga is 88 on the Sperling index, 12 points lower than the national average. Everyday costs including groceries and healthcare are less expensive than other areas of New York. This may help seniors and their families put more money aside for their memory care budget.
Memory Care Laws and Regulations in Cheektowaga
Cheektowaga-area memory care communities must adhere to the comprehensive set of state laws and regulations that all memory care communities in New York are required to follow. Visit our Memory Care in New York page for more information about these laws.
