Texas is a state in which over 380,000 residents are estimated to have a diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease or dementia, many in the vulnerable 65 and older demographic. Out of Fort Bend's population of 711,00010 percent are estimated to have a memory condition, most of them in the 65 and older age group. To house and treat these folks, there are over 300 memory care facilities in Fort Bend County. 

Memory care facilities in Texas are regulated and issued licenses from the Department of Health and Human Services. These stipulations include certification and memory care training for all staff, as well as secure facilities, overnight supervision, and staff on hand to assist in case of an emergency evacuation. 

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in

  • Weather in Fort Bend is characterized by mild winters with no snow, which may bring relief to seniors with certain health conditions aggravated by colder weather. The long, hot summers, with temperatures regularly reaching into the 90s and above, may be stifling for seniors sensitive to high heat. 
  • Texas does not levy a state income tax, including income derived from Social Security benefits and retirement accounts. Families budgeting for a loved one's memory care may appreciate the extra money. 
  • Fort Bend County is ranked as having some of the poorest air quality both for excess ozone and year-round particle pollution by the American Lung Association. Seniors who have respiratory concerns may find their condition aggravated both by the industrial and atmospheric pollution and by short-term waves of air pollution from the oil rigs off the Gulf Coast. 
  • The Fort Bend area, as part of the greater Houston metro area, is home to world-class medical facilities, including those specializing in brain health and dementia care such as Houston Methodist Health Center and Memorial Hermann Sugar Land Hospital, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
