Paying for Memory Care in Vancouver

Financial Assistance for Memory Care in Vancouver
In Vancouver, there are options for seniors who need financial assistance paying for Memory Care in Vancouver. For more information about other options, who qualifies, and how to apply, Memory Care in Washington page.
More Ways to Pay for Memory Care
Memory care residents in Vancouver have several options to cover their monthly care expenses, including government benefits and private-pay solutions. Before choosing a memory care community, it’s helpful to know what programs the prospective resident qualifies for and what payment options the community accepts.
- Medicaid: Washington’s Medicaid program funds the Specialized Dementia Care Program, which has tailored benefits for those living with dementia. This program pays for residential memory care services, including 24-hour supervision, dementia-specific activities programming, personal care and intermittent skilled nursing services.
- Medicare: This federal health insurance program for seniors covers skilled care, including speech and occupational therapies, medication administration and skilled nursing. This leaves more money available to pay for nonmedical support, which makes up the bulk of memory care.
- VA Benefits: The Veterans Administration provides an increased monthly pension to qualified seniors through the Aid & Attendance and Housebound benefits programs. Beneficiaries can use this money to pay for living and memory care costs, including room and board, meals and personal care.
- Private payments: Seniors who have memory care expenses not covered by state, federal and veterans’ benefits rely on private-pay options such as retirement savings, home sale proceeds, long-term care insurance and monthly income.
The Costs of Other Types of Senior Care
Vancouver’s other local care options are also quite pricey. Seniors looking to stay in nursing homes face five-digit prices, with $11,777 per month required for a private room and $10,611 for a semiprivate one. Homemaker or home health aide services are nearly $1,000 more expensive than memory care at $7,146. Assisted living, at $4,975, is approximately $1,200 cheaper than memory care. The least expensive option is adult day health care, which carries a cost of $2,708 a month.

Free Memory Care Resources in Vancouver
Seniors living with dementia can take advantage of a number of programs maintained by both private and government organizations. These Vancouver-area programs can help older adults find financial support, make social connections and address concerns about quality of care.
| Resource | Contact | Service |
|---|---|---|
| Specialized Dementia Care Program | (866) 743-5144 | Offered and administered by the Washington DSHS, this program is intended to provide funding for memory care for adults in state assisted living facilities. Adults taking advantage of this package receive personalized care plans developed with the help and input of their family members, among other benefits. The DSHS works directly with assisted living facilities to provide this program. |
| Luepke Senior Center | (360) 487-7050 | This social hub for Vancouver's older adults offers a wide variety of recreational activities. In addition to painting clubs, knitting clubs, book discussion groups and card games, the Luepke Center holds a popular weekly live-music dance night for seniors. |
| Washington State Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program | (800) 562-6028 | Ombudsmen are charged with acting as investigators of complaints regarding quality care in assisted living facilities, nursing homes and similar long-term care situations. Such complaints can be filed by any person or group who believes the welfare of residents to be at risk. In addition to helping resolve issues with quality of care, ombudsmen can also work with families to offer advice on choosing facilities best suited to a specific family member's care needs. |

What to Consider About Memory Care in Vancouver
The licensing, certification and regulation of memory care facilities in Washington fall to the Aging and Long-Term Support Administration, which is part of the state’s Department of Social and Health Services. Memory care facilities are considered assisted living facilities under state law.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Vancouver
Benefits
- With average daytime temperatures ranging from 45 degrees Fahrenheit in the winter to 83 degrees Fahrenheit in the summer, Vancouver appeals to many seniors who enjoy mild weather. Memory care communities in this city offer secured outdoor areas with walking paths, promoting enrichment and regular exercise.
- Washington doesn’t have a state income tax. This means all Social Security benefits, pension income and withdrawals from retirement accounts are tax-free at the state level, leaving more money in the bank for memory care expenses.
- Vancouver’s proximity to Portland gives memory care residents access to some of the state’s top hospitals, including Providence St. Vincent Medical Center, Providence Portland Medical Center and Oregon Health and Science University. These hospitals support seniors and families affected by dementia through community outreach programs and neurological care.
Drawbacks
- Vancouver’s cost of living outpaces the national norm by 25%, making retirement in this city impractical for many with limited financial resources. Fortunately, qualified seniors pay for residential memory care services through state-funded programs such as the Specialized Dementia Care Program.
- Vancouver experiences nearly 62 crimes per 1,000 people in a given year, putting it in the bottom 1% of U.S. communities for safety. This makes memory care, which features 24-hour security monitoring, a sensible alternative to living alone for seniors with memory loss.
Memory Care Laws and Regulations in Vancouver
Vancouver Memory Care Communities must adhere to the comprehensive set of state laws and regulations that all Memory Care Facilities in Washington are required to follow. Visit our Memory Care in Washington page for more information about these laws.
