Compliance with this, as well as other important guidelines to keep memory care patients safe, is overseen by the Department of Elder Affairs.
Since these memory care units must be secured in order to meet the state’s requirements, seniors and their families may not be concerned about the higher-than-average crime rates in Pinellas Park; although, it's still a good idea to inquire about the security policies and procedures in these memory care units.
