What to Consider About Memory Care in Clinton

Across the state of Connecticut, the number of people aged 65 and older with Alzheimer's disease is growing from the 75,000 seniors currently living with this diagnosis. The town of Clinton is home to around 13,000 residents, 18.8 percent of whom fall into this age range and may be part of the demographic. These individuals can access specialized care at a memory care facility, or Alzheimer's Special Care Units (SCUs) as they're called in Connecticut. Though there is only one option in the town at the moment, there are six other facilities located nearby.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Clinton

  • Compared to the harsh winters experienced in many towns across Connecticut, winter weather can be much more temperate in Clinton. The town averages a low of 21 degrees, warmer than state average of 17, and receives an overall comfort index score of 54 out of 100. Though it may be more comfortable, it can still be dangerous for seniors to be exposed to winter weather, so make sure an SCU has measures in place to keep residents safe.
  • Despite low averages across the state, crime rates in Clinton are quite high. On a scale of 100, with 100 representing high crime, Clinton scores 35.7 for violent crime and 34.5 for property crime. These compare to state-wide scores of 21.1 and 23.7 in the same categories respectively.  Though most SCUs are fully equipped with surveillance and security systems, checking into specific policies and procedures may offer added peace of mind.
  • Based on a national average of 100, the cost of living in Clinton is 119.3, only slightly higher than the Connecticut average of 118. This may make Clinton an appealing option for Connecticut families looking for a budget-friendly town in the Hartford metropolitan area.
  • Clinton has no available facilities in the event of a medical emergency or illness, with the nearest major hospitals specializing in brain health and dementia care located in Middletown (Middlesex Hospital) and New London (Lawrence + Memorial Hospital).
