The number of senior citizens in Colorado has increased in recent years. Affordable healthcare paired with an aging population is driving these numbers. There is a broad assortment of memory care homes and senior living facilities which also encourages families to migrate. Most older people prefer to maintain their independence as long as possible. Sadly, if they suffer from dementia, Alzheimer’s disease or any other type of memory impairment, independent senior living in Colorado may no longer remain an option. There are many Colorado dementia care communities to choose from that offer a broad range of care and services specific to each condition.

When is Colorado memory care right for your loved one?

There is no perfect time to move from a family home into one of the many Colorado dementia care communities. You should consider that most conditions like Alzheimer’s and dementia will cause a steady decline over time. Loved ones who were previously self-sufficient or who only needed gentle reminders may lose their ability to care for themselves completely. If your loved one often fails to remember to take their medication, is no longer able to perform basic daily functions or is having trouble remembering important people, it may be time to consider your options. Many seniors who suffer from memory conditions also are plagued with sleeping problems which can make those conditions worse. Often, living in an environment that follows a routine, such as a Colorado memory care home can help ease the effects of the condition.

In some cases, it is the lives of the caregiver that cause a need for extra care. If you are caring for your loved one who suffers from a memory condition but realize that your work schedule or the schedule of your children doesn’t allow for proper monitoring, it may be time to think about enrolling them in a Colorado memory care community. Needing help or admitting that you can’t do it on your own doesn’t mean that you don’t care.

Expected Costs of Colorado Dementia and Alzheimer's Care

The cost of care for memory communities can vary depending on the location and the services provided. Alzheimer’s homes with full-time care in Colorado on average will amount to $128 on a daily basis. This is a bit lower than the national average of $160 a day and is slightly cheaper than assisted living facilities in Colorado, but like all things, the rate can increase or decrease according to add-on services. Some of the least costly Colorado dementia care homes are as affordable as $69 a day for basic care. For families that are seeking a more high-end service or Alzheimer’s care communities with special therapies, you can expect to pay as much as $205 a day. When you are looking for a long-term care home for your loved one, make sure you budget for at least $3,850 a month for quality care.

How to Pick an Alzheimer’s Care Community in Colorado

Colorado Alzheimer's care communities are unique places that offer a wide range of services for those in need of dedicated memory care. Selecting a quality Colorado memory care provider can get pretty confusing once you see the wide range of options available. Before you make your choice, you should take a few things into consideration.

Think about how involved you want your family to be in the future care of your loved one. Do you want to help make important decisions or do you want to leave that up to the discretion of the attending staff members? The personality of your loved one is also an important factor. Although people suffering from memory conditions may not be able to take care of themselves, they still want to be involved in the choices that affect their future.

As people age, the amount of regular medical care required will also increase. If your loved one has other health issues to consider then you may want to find a location that is near a hospital or even one located inside of a Colorado retirement home. Ask the facilities on your shortlist if they offer hospice services and ask for a list of their discharge policies.

While not every resident is overly religious, it is important to find out what type of accommodations the Colorado dementia care homes offer. While you are at it, enquire about social activities, field trips and other events that may be available for your loved one to participate in during their stay. When you visit your shortlisted locations, make sure that you ask the manager or enrollment agent to show you their current SCU disclosure form and inspection reports.
