What to Consider About Memory Care in Woburn
The Massachusetts Executive Office of Health and Human Services licenses all memory care facilities in Woburn and publishes information on minimum standards facilities must follow, as well as residents’ rights. It also enforces dementia-specific requirements for staff training, security and the number of on-site caregivers at a given time.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Woburn
- Massachusetts has moderately retiree-friendly income tax laws that may impact how much money seniors can afford to put toward memory care expenses in Woburn. While the state taxes private pensions and withdrawals from retirement accounts without offering exemptions or deductions, it exempts public pension income and Social Security benefits.
- Woburn doesn’t have its own hospital, but memory care residents in this community have access to facilities such as Lahey Hospital and Medical Center in Burlington and Lawrence Memorial Hospital of Medford. Both hospitals sit within 5 miles of the city and offer advanced medical services, including neurology services for those with memory loss.
- Woburn sits in Middlesex County, a community that the American Lung Association assigns an A for ozone pollution and a B for short-term particle pollution. The organization reports just 2 days annually in which particle pollution levels may be high enough to affect vulnerable individuals, such as seniors, which may support the health of those moving to Woburn for memory care.
- Woburn has a seasonal climate, with a warm season that lasts from June through mid-September and a cold season that runs from December through mid-March. Year-round temperatures range from lows of 20 degrees Fahrenheit in January to highs of 82 degrees Fahrenheit in July, although extreme temperatures may dip as low as 5 degrees Fahrenheit and rise as high as 91 degrees Fahrenheit. Fortunately, many memory care facilities have indoor amenities and features, such as unit-controlled thermostats, to support residents’ comfort.
- Crime occurs significantly less often in Woburn than in a typical U.S. city, which may benefit vulnerable seniors moving to this city for memory care. On a 100-point index, the city scores 12.4 for violent crime, about 10 points below the national norm, and 20.9 for property crime compared to 35.4 nationally.
Memory Care Laws and Regulations in Woburn
Woburn Memory Care Communities must adhere to the comprehensive set of state laws and regulations that all Memory Care Facilities in Massachusetts are required to follow. Visit our Memory Care in Massachusetts page for more information about these laws.
