What to Consider About Memory Care in Tualatin
Located in the Portland metropolitan area, Tualatin, Oregon, is a suburban community with 27,478 residents, including 2,720 senior citizens. As the population ages, Alzheimer's and related dementias are a growing concern. In 2018, more than 65,000 Oregonians were affected by these conditions, and experts project a 29 percent increase by 2025.
To meet the population's needs, residents of Tualatin are served by three memory care facilities, and more than a dozen other options are located in the greater Portland area. All assisted living, residential care and nursing facilities that operate memory care communities must obtain a license from the Oregon Department of Human Services before they can admit special-care residents.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Tualatin
- While the Pacific Northwest is known for its rainy climate, Tualatin only receives 2 more inches of rain than the average U.S. city. Snow is rare although January lows often dip into the mid-30s, and summers are mild with average highs around 80 degrees. Memory care facilities have safeguards to protect residents from all types of weather.
- Although Oregon does not charge sales tax, it does have relatively high income tax rates. Social Security retirement benefits aren't taxable, but other retirement accounts are subject to tax rates as high as 9.9 percent. However, seniors may qualify for deductions that can reduce their financial burden and increase the affordability of memory care.
- Tualatin's cost of living is approximately 50 percent higher than the national average and 25 percent higher than the state average. Like other metropolitan suburbs, housing and transportation are subject to the largest premiums. Fortunately, healthcare costs are 17 percent lower than average, which can benefit older adults who have complex medical needs.
- As part of the Portland metropolitan area, Tualatin is home to several world-class medical facilities, including those specializing in brain health and dementia care, such as the Providence Medical Plaza - Sherwood, Legacy Medical Group - Geriatrics and the Memory Health Center, in the event of a medical emergency or illness.
