Time for Memory Care

My husband is 74 and in good shape. He recently scored a 4 on the SLUM test. He goes to adult daycare 3x / wk.
He still can shower and dress, but has significant speech aphasia.
I'm looking at Memory Care by the end of October. My biggest concern is that he won't be "as bad" as those I see in those places. They seem older and lower functioning. I'm praying for clarity.

My husband is 84 and in good shape. He likes to be active and go places with me. Even though he's older, I'm concerned he may be higher functioning than the average resident. But his confusion and agitation are the reason I must make this decision.
