In the early stages of Alzheimer's, when a senior doesn't require 24 hour supervision, you may to consider want to consider a Portland CCRC, assisted living or in-home care. A CCRC allows seniors the benefit of making just one transition into a care facility and then can move into special areas based on their needs. Assisted Living is a much higher standard of living than a locked-down memory care unit. In-home care can be the least expensive senior care but does place additional load on the family.
