What to Consider About Memory Care in Beaverton

The city of Beaverton, which is located in the northwest region of Oregon, has nearly 100,000 residents, 12 percent of whom are over the age of 65. The Alzheimer's Association estimates that 65,000 Oregon residents have Alzheimer's disease, which is a top cause of dementia. This number is expected to increase by nearly 30 percent in the years to come. 

To support the growing number of residents living with dementia, the Beaverton area has 19 memory care facilities. Two are located in the city proper and the other 17 are in nearby cities, including Portland and Tualatin. Memory care facilities in Beaverton may be situated in assisted living facilities, residential care facilities or nursing facilities. Oregon has a separate set of rules and licensing requirements for these communities, and any facility that offers memory care must obtain an endorsement to do so.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Beaverton

 

  • Social Security benefits are tax-exempt in Oregon, meaning that seniors who rely solely on this income will not pay income tax. Other types of retirement income are taxable, though some seniors can claim a credit on that income.
  • The Beaverton area has no facilities from which to choose in the event of a medical emergency or illness, with the nearest major hospital specializing in brain health and dementia care located in Portland.
  • Beaverton residents enjoy a comfortable year-round climate. August, the warmest month of the year, has highs in the mid-80s and lows around 56 degrees. The coldest month of the year is January when highs are in the mid-40s and lows are in the mid-30s. This city may be ideal for seniors who prefer moderate climates. 
  • Beaverton's crime rate is markedly lower than that of other U.S. communities of similar size, and the city is safer than 61 percent of Oregon cities. This may provide peace of mind for families who are helping their loved ones move to memory care in this city.
