What to Consider About Memory Care in Spokane Valley
In Spokane Valley, more than 15 percent of residents are 65 years of age or older. While many of the city's seniors are in good health and able to live independently, there are some who've been diagnosed with Alzheimer's Disease or other forms of dementia, which affect 110,000 seniors throughout the state. For those with dementia who are no longer able to live on their own, there are four memory care facilities in the area that provide residential care.
These facilities are officially known as assisted living facilities and often provide multiple levels of care, including memory care and basic assisted living services. The Washington State Department of Social and Health Services is responsible for overseeing the operation of all assisted living facilities in the state.
- There's no state income tax in Washington, which may be a huge benefit for families who are working with a small budget for memory care expenses. With no state income tax, all forms of retirement income, including pension and social security benefits, are tax-free.
- The Spokane Valley Area is home to world-class medical facilities, including those that specialize in brain health and dementia care such as MultiCare Valley Hospital, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
- The air quality in Spokane Valley and throughout Spokane County is reasonably good according to the American Lung Association. Although there are some high-pollution days throughout the year, the air in the city poses minimal risk to seniors.
