What to Consider About Memory Care in King Of Prussia

Memory care communities in King of Prussia seek licensing from the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services, Office of Long-term Living, Bureau of Human Services Licensing. This agency officially recognizes these facilities as assisted living residences with special care units, and it requires them to follow stringent guidelines for housing, staffing and care planning.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in King Of Prussia

Per 1,000 people, the city reports about 0.65 violent crimes and 33.53 property-related infractions in a given year. While the property crime rate exceeds state and national norms of 14.83 and 20.00, respectively, it shows that violent crime occurs far less frequently here than in a typical U.S. or Pennsylvania community. Even so, many memory care communities have alarm systems and security gates to keep residents safe.

This score, which outpaces the average U.S. city rating by about nine points, demonstrates the city’s benefits and amenities for seniors, including those living with memory loss. Per 10,000 people, the city has 2.9 cultural institutions compared to the national norm of 1.9, offering early-stage engagement opportunities for memory care residents, and the rate of preventable hospitalizations compares favorably to the nation as a whole at 36.4.
