What to Consider About Memory Care in San Bernardino County

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services estimates that one in 10 of these seniors is living with dementia. Because of the progressive nature of the disease, affected seniors may eventually need more intensive care than families can provide at home.

When it is time to help a loved one transition into memory care, San Bernardino County offers 26 different facilities from which to choose. The state of California licenses them as Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly (RCFEs).
