A system includes a memory device and a processing device coupled to the memory device. The processing device is to perform operations including maintaining a counter to track a number of memory access operations performed on a range of consecutive wordlines in a block of the memory device. The operations further include determining that the number of memory access operations performed on the range of consecutive wordlines satisfies a threshold criterion. The operations further include, responsive to the number of memory access operations performed on the range of consecutive wordlines satisfying the threshold criterion, causing a memory management operation to be performed at each wordline of the range of consecutive wordlines in the block of the memory device.
