New diagnosis
Dad was just diagnosed with dementia. What are the options?
Most people stay home for a while after a diagnosis. Memory care makes sense when safety — wandering, the stove, medications — can't be managed at home.
Your options
In-home care with dementia training
$28–$38/hour
Fits when: Early stage, with a spouse or family at home.
Not for: Wandering or nighttime confusion.
Memory care
$6,000–$9,000/month
Fits when: Safety risks, sundowning, or caregiver exhaustion.
Not for: Very early stage with no safety concerns.
Assisted living with a memory neighborhood
$5,000–$7,500/month
Fits when: A couple where one spouse has dementia.
Not for: Late-stage needs.
Typical Central Texas ranges; always confirm with each community.
