What to Consider About Memory Care in Westerville

Westerville is a city located in the heart of Ohio and has a population of nearly 40,000 residents, one in five of whom is 65 years or older. The state of Ohio has the sixth highest rate of Alzheimer's disease in the country, with roughly 220,000 people living with the condition.

To support those with dementia, Ohio has memory care facilities which may either be housed in an independent, freestanding structure or within existing assisted living facilities. There are three memory care facilities in Westerville, and another 20 facilities can be found in surrounding cities such as Worthington, Columbus and Gahanna. These facilities, as well as all memory care facilities in the state, are licensed by the Ohio Department of Health.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Westerville

  • While Ohio seniors do not pay income tax on Social Security benefits, all other types of retirement income are taxed. This may affect how much money a senior can put toward memory care expenses.
  • The cost of living in Westerville is about 26 percent higher than the state average and 14 percent higher than the national median, primarily due to the relatively high cost of housing. Although this may affect the cost of room and board in local memory care facilities, this expense may be offset by the lower cost of healthcare, which is about 11 percent below the national average. This may help seniors afford the expense of managing a chronic condition.
  • Westerville's property and violent crime rates are lower than regional, state and national averages, which may provide peace of mind for families who are transitioning their loved ones to memory care in this city. On a 100-point scale, with a lower score representing less crime, Westerville's property crime rate is 35.2, and the violent crime rate is 18.3. This is compared to the respective national averages of 38.1 and 31.1.
  • The Westerville area is home to world-class medical facilities, including those specializing in brain health and dementia care such as Westerville Medical Campus, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.

Paying for Memory Care in Westerville
