The 3 Best Memory Care Facilities in Roseburg, OR for 2024

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shows that in 2020, 91 people in the area died from Alzheimer’s, a 17% increase compared to 2016. While this is modest compared to the 19% increase in the total number of deaths, it provides a glimpse of the impact this disease has had on the Roseburg community.

Residential memory care addresses some of the most pressing challenges for seniors and families affected by dementia, making it a practical long-term care solution for many. This type of care features innovative therapies, failure-free activities and familiar routines in a nurturing, secure environment.

What to Consider About Memory Care in Roseburg

Memory care facilities in Roseburg are regulated through the Oregon Department of Human Services, Office of Safety, Oversight and Quality. They’re officially licensed as assisted living facilities but are required to carry a special endorsement to provide memory support. Memory care units may either be freestanding or located within a designated locked wing of an assisted living facility.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Roseburg

 

  • In Oregon, seniors pay state income taxes on withdrawals from their retirement savings accounts, and there are no deductions or exemptions available to reduce this burden. However, those who draw pension income may be able to claim a credit on that income, reducing what they owe, and Social Security benefits are entirely exempt from taxation at the state level. This may help some seniors afford memory care services in Roseburg.
  • Mercy Medical Center, which ranks among the top medical facilities in the state, is located in Roseburg proper. This hospital offers state-of-the-art care across several specializations, including emergency services, diagnostic imaging, respiratory care and surgery. Health care costs trend about 4% lower in this city than in the nation as a whole, which may make it a financially viable option for seniors managing chronic health conditions.
  • Roseburg has a mild climate that brings comfortable weather year-round, making it a practical option for seniors who enjoy being outdoors. The city gets just 1 inch of snow and 35 inches of rain annually, and year-round temperatures range from lows of 36 degrees to highs of 85 degrees.
  • Violent crime is relatively uncommon in Roseburg, but property crime is much more prevalent here than in a typical U.S. city. On a 100-point crime scale, the city scores several points below the nation for violent crime with a rating of 16.7. However, it scores 78.5 for property crime compared to 35.4 nationally. To promote residents’ safety, memory care facilities have security features such as gated entry, alarm systems and high-security locks.
  • Roseburg is among the most affordable places to live in Oregon, promoting seniors’ financial stability throughout retirement. On a cost of living index set to a national norm of 100, the city rates 90.7, indicating that living costs are about 9% below the national average. This is about 24 points below the state norm, which may appeal to families with budgetary considerations.
