In Winnebago County, the senior community comprises almost 16 percent of the overall population of 170,000 residents. The rate of Alzheimer's disease and dementia in this county is a little lower than the national average, with about 10.8 percent of Medicare beneficiaries aged 65 and over living with this diagnosis versus the national average of 11.3 percent.  

Winnebago County has five memory care facilities, including three in the city of Oshkosh, one in Appleton and one in Neenah. In this county, as in the rest of Wisconsin, memory care services are provided in community-based residential facilities, which are licensed by the Wisconsin Department of Health Services.  

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in

 

  • Over the course of a year, temperatures in Winnebago County range between 10 degrees and 81 degrees. This is a little cooler than the national average of 23 degrees and 86 degrees. The region gets about 36 inches of snowfall a year, which is about 10 inches more than the nationwide average and may be a consideration for families whose senior loved ones have mobility difficulties.
