What to Consider About Memory Care in Longwood

Longwood boasts a large senior population, with nearly 19 percent of its 15,000 residents aged 65 and older. Some of these seniors are among the 540,000 Florida seniors living with Alzheimer's disease. These seniors and their families may choose from one of the 20 memory care facilities in Longwood and the surrounding area.

Thanks to oversight by the Florida Department of Elder Affairs, all memory care facilities, which fall into the broader category of assisted living facilities, in the state must be licensed and staff must receive training through the University of South Florida's Training Academy on Aging. This ensures that all facilities deliver high-quality care to residents with dementia and related memory impairments.
