What to Consider About Memory Care in Parker

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Parker

  • Seniors in Parker can claim a deduction of up to $24,000 on their state income taxes to reduce what they owe for Social Security income, pension income and money they take out of their retirement savings accounts. This lets many seniors and families afford local memory care services.
  • AdventHealth Parker sits within Parker proper and provides a wide range of services including cancer care, emergency services and orthopedics. The hospital has a neurology department with board-certified physicians who diagnose and treat memory-related conditions, as well as rehabilitative therapists who help seniors with dementia retain speech and motor skills. To help residents access care, many memory care facilities in Parker provide scheduling and transportation services for appointments.
  • Parker ranks among the more expensive places to live, with a cost of living that exceeds the national average by about 44% and Colorado’s norm by 19%. Even so, its health care costs fall about 17% below costs in the nation as a whole, which may cut down on what memory care residents spend on treatment and therapy services. Additionally, the state funds various waiver programs that may reduce what seniors with dementia pay for memory care.
  • In Parker, violent crime occurs at a rate of about two incidents per 1,000 people in a given year, versus about five incidents statewide and four infractions nationally, giving residents a 1 in 440 chance of experiencing a violent offense. Although property-related crime occurs more frequently at a rate of 17.31, this runs well below the national median of 20 and the state norm of 31.48. Parker’s overall crime rate falls below typical rates in cities that share its population size, making it a prime option for families seeking memory care services in a safe community.
  • Douglas County, where Parker sits, ranks among the healthiest counties in the state. About 54% of Medicare beneficiaries in this community get the annual flu shot compared to 47% statewide, promoting a healthy environment in memory care facilities, and the rate of preventable hospitalizations among seniors runs low at 1,394 incidents per 100,000 patients.
