Memory Care in Wyoming

Many families with aging adults are unaware of the several available memory care options and programs in their area that can help them support a high quality of life.

So we created a free resource guide that highlights the best memory care facilities in Wyoming.

Wyoming saw 151 deaths related to Alzheimer’s disease in 2015, and it continues to be a growing public health crisis in the state. According to the Alzheimer’s Association, there are currently 10,100 people aged 65 and older living with Alzheimer’s in Wyoming, which is up from 9,700 in 2019. This number is expected to continue growing every year to a projected 13,000 cases by 2025, which represents an increase of 34%. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention indicate that cases of Alzheimer’s and related dementias will double nationwide by 2060.

Memory care facilities provide those living with Alzheimer’s and dementia with care that is tailored to their unique needs. Memory care can take place in its own facility, or as part of a designated wing of another residential care community. Staff members of memory care units or facilities undergo specialized training in caring for those with memory impairment, and the facilities often coordinate social activities and schedules specifically for the needs of those living with Alzheimer’s or dementia.

This guide will cover the cost of memory care in Wyoming, financial assistance options for paying for memory care, free memory care resources in the state, and a directory of memory care facilities in Wyoming.
