What to Consider About Memory Care in Nassau County

Nassau County is north of Jacksonville on the Georgia border with a population of 82,721 residents. About 21.6 percent, or nearly 18,000, are aged 65 or older, and it's probable that about 1,600 of them have Alzheimer's disease.

The Florida Agency for Health Care Administration licenses, regulates and inspects Extended Congregate Care (ECC) facilities to care for older people with cognitive impairments. By 2025, it's estimated that Florida's senior population of 540,000 will increase to 720,000, and the three ECCs in Sumter County will not be equipped to handle the seniors who need supervised care.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in

  • Nassau County's annual rainfall of 51 inches is more than the national average by 12 inches. The sun shines 221 days during a typical year. Summer high temperatures climb into the 90s, and the winter average low temperature is a snow-proof 42. Nassau County earned a Sperling's Comfort Index of 76 out of 100, which is 22 points over the U.S. average of 54. The pleasant weather can benefit seniors with respiratory problems or aching joints.
  • Florida is one of the few states without an income tax. Families and elderly members may notice that their Social Security or pension payments last longer, and that extra cash can be applied to ECC.
  • The cost of living in Nassau County is 118.5, which is 18 points higher than the national median. All of the various categories are near the state and national averages, so families should not expect to pay extra for household expenses or healthcare in the county.
  • The violent crime rate of 38.4 in Nassau County and the 39.9 property crime rate are nearly equal to the national averages of 31.1 and 38.1 respectively. Family members should inquire regarding extra measures in place to safeguard the patients at the ECC facility.
