Where can you find memory care in the Jacksonville area?
58 AHCA-licensed Assisted Living Facilities in Duval, St. Johns, Clay, Nassau and Baker counties list a Memory Care program on their state profile (Duval 34, St. Johns 15, Clay 4, Nassau 5). Together they hold 5,055 licensed beds.
4 of them are dedicated memory care communities by name (for example Diamond Assisted Living and Memory Care, Ortega Gardens Alzheimer's Special Care Center, San Jose Gardens Alzheimer's Special Care Center); the rest run a memory care program alongside assisted living. Because Florida has no separate memory care license, the AHCA profile's program listing is the public signal to check — then confirm the secured area and staff dementia training on a tour.

What is the difference between assisted living and memory care in Florida?
Assisted living is a licensed ALF providing housing, meals and personal care; memory care is a secured dementia program inside a licensed ALF. Both operate under the same AHCA ALF license, and neither is a nursing home.
| Assisted living | Memory care | |
|---|---|---|
| Florida license | Assisted Living Facility (ALF) license from AHCA | The same ALF license — Florida has no separate memory care license |
| What it is | Housing, meals, personal care and help with medications | A secured, dementia-focused program or wing inside an ALF, with ADRD-trained staff |
| What it isn't | Not a nursing home — no 24-hour skilled nursing | Not a license category of its own; ECC, LNS and LMH are not memory care licenses |
| Who it fits | Adults who need daily help but are largely independent | People with Alzheimer's or related dementia who need supervision and a secure setting |
| Typical Jacksonville cost (2026) | $3,200–$5,500/mo | $4,500–$6,800/mo |
| Medicaid | SMMC LTC can pay care services (not rent) where the ALF contracts with the plan | Same — SMMC LTC covers services; room and board is private pay |
Frequently asked questions
How do you check a Florida ALF's license and inspections?
Search the facility on AHCA's FloridaHealthFinder locator; its profile shows the license number, beds, specialty licenses and sanctions, and links to inspection reports.
What do Provisional and In Review mean on a Florida license?
Provisional means AHCA licensed a new licensee, often after a change of ownership, pending its first full survey. In review means the license is open while AHCA processes the renewal application.
Does Florida Medicaid pay for memory care?
Partly. The SMMC Long-Term Care program can pay for care services in an ALF that contracts with the resident's plan, but room and board stay private pay; full Medicaid coverage of room and board is available only in a nursing home.
How often is this directory updated?
We re-pull every license from AHCA's FloridaHealthFinder quarterly; this page was last verified in October 2026.
