What to Consider About Memory Care in Port Washington

Port Washington, which is home to less than 12,000 people and has a senior community of 15 percent of the population, is situated within Ozaukee County. It's estimated that 1,800 people in Ozaukee County are living with dementia. To meet the needs of seniors and families living with dementia, the county provides an array of resources including memory cafes, music and memory programs and support groups.

Local families who are seeking memory care services for their loved ones find three memory care facilities in Port Washington and two more in the nearby cities of Mequon and Grafton. In most cases, memory care is provided in licensed community-based residential facilities that offer specialized services for residents with dementia. 

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Port Washington

  • Port Washington seniors do not pay state income tax on income from Social Security or government pensions. However, all other types of retirement income are fully taxable. This may affect how much money can be put toward memory care in Port Washington.
  • Port Washington's summers are comfortable, with highs near 80 and relatively low humidity levels, making the city a good choice for seniors who enjoy participating in therapeutic outdoor activities. Winters are chilly, however, with lows in the teens, so families may wish to ensure that the memory care facility they choose takes proper precautions with residents during times of extreme cold.
  • While ozone pollution levels are high in Ozaukee County, short-term particle pollution levels are very low. Port Washington's air quality may be a consideration for families whose senior loved one has a cardiovascular or respiratory condition.
  • Port Washington's overall living costs and healthcare expenses come in about 6 percent higher than the overall national average. This may be a concern for families and seniors with tight memory care budgets.

Memory Care Laws and Regulations in Port Washington

Port Washington-area memory care communities must adhere to the comprehensive set of state laws and regulations that all memory care communities in Wisconsin are required to follow. Visit our Memory Care in Wisconsin page for more information about these laws.
