Both assisted living and nursing facilities have developed dementia care houses or wings of buildings. There are higher numbers of staff to work with the special needs of older people with dementia. Activities are specially suited to the traits of dementia. The facilities typically will have a keypad entry or exit and an alarm monitoring system so the resident is always safe and can t leave without supervision. Sometimes there are assisted living houses and dementia houses owned by the same company so a person can move when mental abilities decrease.

Shareholders or tenants live in an apartment building that is owned by a not-for-profit cooperative corporation. Residents buy a share in the co-op, and the cooperative owns the land, building, and common areas. Residents are entitled to live in a housing unit as part of their membership benefits. Members pay a fixed amount each month that covers basic expenses including mortgage and property taxes. Cooperatives are private pay institutions because of the ownership structure.
