That age group is so vulnerable that there are already 64,000 Oklahoma seniors who are living with Alzheimer’s disease and dementia, a number that’s expected to grow to 76,000 before 2025. To support this growing demographic, there are 18 memory care facilities in the county, with the majority of them being located in Oklahoma City and Edmond.

In Oklahoma County and throughout the state of Oklahoma, memory care facilities are known as residential care homes and assisted living centers. Both are governed by the Department of Health Long-Term Care Services division.
