What to Consider About Memory Care in Cuyahoga County
Cuyahoga County is home to almost 220,000 people aged 65 and over, and it's likely that some of those people might be among the estimated 200,000 people in Ohio that are currently living with Alzheimer's disease. Seniors living in Cuyahoga County have access to 30 memory care facilities that specialize in care for people with cognitive impairments. These facilities are referred to as Residential Care Facilities in Ohio and are required to provide a safe environment for their residing seniors.
- Cuyahoga County is home to world-class medical facilities, including those specializing in brain health and dementia care such as MetroHealth Medical Center, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
- The air quality in Cuyahoga County could present a problem for seniors with respiratory problems. The American Lung Association awarded a rating of "F" in its ozone category, and a "fail" in the annual particle pollution category. While it's typical for highly populated and industrialized areas to receive low ratings, these ratings are notably poor.
- Cuyahoga County can be an affordable place to live for seniors on a budget. An overall cost of living that's more than ten percent lower than the national average, and healthcare bills almost 20 percent lower, means more money could be allocated to paying for a memory care facility.
- An average of 70 inches of snow a year in Cuyahoga County is almost three times the national average of 26 inches annually. Because of this, winters are often extremely cold. It could be a good idea to inquire about the steps that facilities take to ensure residents don't manage to get outside in such a chilly climate.
