Frequently Asked Questions
What is Memory Care for seniors?
Memory Care is a long-term care plan provided at either a senior living community with other levels of care or at a stand-alone Memory Care community. Memory Care facilities care for those with early-stage dementia all the way to final-stage dementia.
A person with dementia will reside in a Memory Care community if they are no longer able to live safely at home or need more medical care than what’s provided in home care from family caregivers or nurses.
At Charter Senior Living of White House, we provide personalized care to every wonderful resident in our Memory Care neighborhood, along with services and amenities that help them thrive. Learn more about our unique approach, below.
Does Your Community Serve Seniors at All Stages of Memory Loss?
Yes. We’re equipped to help those living with early to late stages of dementia and every moment in between.
Signs of early-stage dementia include forgetting names, repetition, and struggling to find the right words to describe feelings. Signs of later-stage dementia may include little to no communication, loss of mobility, incontinence, and the inability to eat or dress.
Dementia and Alzheimer’s affect every family differently. That’s why we created a unique program in Flourish℠ that personalizes care exactly to your loved one’s needs.
How can I decide between assisted living and memory care?
Assisted Living and Memory Care senior living communities provide many of the same services, including housing; meals; and help with bathing, grooming and toileting. However, Memory Care communities or neighborhoods specialize in caring for seniors with all stages of Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. In Memory Care communities, environmental security is a key design feature.
To prevent wandering, many communities are equipped with locked entrances and exits, as well as keypad entries, obscured exits, and doorbells signaling entering and exiting. To avoid injuries from falls, dementia care communities feature designs that minimize confusion. In addition, they offer calming therapies in soothing spaces. This can help reduce agitation and confusion that can lead to aggression or self-injury.
The staff members in dementia care communities are also specially trained in care planning for those living with memory loss. The staff understands how to effectively prevent and manage difficult dementia behaviors. They also understand the balance of encouraging residents to stay as independent as possible while providing the support they need. Many communities, including Charter, have a higher staff-to-resident ratio than Assisted Living, which allows for more one-on-one attention throughout the day.
What is the cost of memory care?
The higher level of care and supervision in an Alzheimer’s residential care home comes at a price. On average, Assisted Living costs $4,000 a month, and Memory Care adds another $1,000 to $4,000 a month. Costs vary from state to state and are impacted by the level of care provided.
Our monthly rate for Memory Care is all-inclusive. A shared studio apartment home starts at $5,295.
WHAT IS INCLUDED IN ALL-INCLUSIVE MEMORY CARE?
Our Memory Care offers all-inclusive care, ensuring that our memory care residents receive the support they need for one all-inclusive monthly fee.
Does Medicare cover memory care?
Medicare and Medicare Advantage Plans generally will not pay for room and board or personal care in a Memory Care community. Medicare will, however, pay for the medical care the facility provides. Veterans benefits typically help cover the cost for eligible Veterans and surviving spouses who are over age 65.
