Hello, all.

My mother is currently in a secured memory care unit (of a skilled nursing facility). Wanting desperately to move her, as the place that she's in currently is terrible. (The management is criminal.) If anyone has a loved one in memory care in Central or North Florida, would appreciate recommendations via private message. Thank you.

    I’m so so sorry you are dealing with this. I don’t know of one there but I HIGHLY recommend calling the Alzheimer’s association hotline.  800.272. 3900. I’ve called them like 3 times with important questions and they have been more helpful than I expected.

    Several years ago we used Sutton HomesASL/ memory care- And had good care, I may be needing support again soon and they will be the first place I will call. It is not connected to SNF- but individual homes with 7 ish residents. They are in central Fl area
