In New Jersey, the state’s Department of Health regulates Memory Care providers, which must meet certain requirements for licensure. State laws cover considerations such as staffing levels, training requirements for on-staff caregivers and medication management.
Authoritative cost data for memory care is unavailable, but memory care usually costs 20% to 30% more than assisted living. Thus, to generate memory care cost data, this guide increases assisted living rates found in the Genworth 2021 Cost of Care Survey by 25%.
Bergen County’s average memory care provider charges $7,188 per month, which is less than the state average of $8,119. However, the median nationwide cost is lower, coming in at $5,625 per month. Turning to specific New Jersey cities, Trenton and Ocean City cost $10,181 and $9,363, respectively. Atlantic City is pricier than Bergen County as well, but to a lesser degree. There, memory care’s average monthly cost is $7,259.
