In Florida, 540,000 seniors have Alzheimer's disease, and that number is projected to grow, according to the Alzheimer's Association. Some of these Orange County seniors may live with Alzheimer's disease and benefit from living in one of the area's 20 memory care facilities.

Orange County's memory care facilities, like all other assisted living facilities in the state, are subject to licensing and regulations established by the Florida Department of Elder Affairs. In addition, these staff at facilities must obtain additional training through the University of South Florida's Training Academy on Aging
