“Been a resident for 5 months and have become a fan. Very clean and organized. Food service could offer a ‘healthier’ selection. More fresh fruits and veggies. Had an early problem with unwanted guests entering my room unannounced, but seems to be corrected.”

“Volunteered with "Canines for Christ" today. It is always a joy for us and our therapy dogs to have a visit with the residents at Waterford at Creekside.”

“I visited this assisted living facility in search of a forever home for my dad. It is warm and cozy with friendly staff. It is beautiful from the front of the building on. They were playing a game when I went in and the people there were really enjoying themselves. I’m bringing my dad back for a visit!”

How families pay for memory care in Florida

In Florida, as elsewhere, most families start by paying privately for assisted living, memory care or independent living, often drawing on savings, retirement income and, in many cases, the proceeds from selling a home. Long-term care insurance, when a parent or spouse purchased a policy years earlier, can also help cover these costs, though the specifics of what's covered vary by policy. Veterans and surviving spouses who meet eligibility requirements may qualify for VA Aid and Attendance, a benefit that can be applied toward the cost of care.
