Paying for Memory Care in Boca Raton

Note: Residential memory care is usually offered in assisted living facilities, and in general, memory care rates tend to be 20-30% higher than assisted living rates.

The median cost per month for memory care in Boca Raton is $5,481.

Free Memory Care Resources in Boca Raton

Although Boca Raton’s memory care communities provide extensive care for seniors with cognitive issues, there are other needs they don’t have the facilities to support. However, the city is home to many nonprofits that provide assistance free of charge on a wide range of subjects, including legal advice, medical equipment and complaints about the quality of memory care. The following table includes links and phone numbers to several nonprofits, including a short explanation of what each offers seniors and their families.

ResourceContactService
Florida Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program(888) 831-0404Families concerned about the quality of care given to loved ones in memory care facilities can register their complaints with the long-term care ombudsman program. An ombudsman will investigate and advocate on behalf of the resident in negotiations with the care provider. Investigations revealing criminal behavior will be escalated.
Legal Aid Society of Palm Beach County(800) 403-9353Palm Beach County residents aged 60 and older can call on the nonprofit firm's help if they've been the victims of exploitation and abuse. Its attorneys have extensive experience helping seniors get justice in several areas of civil law. These include getting Medicare after it's been denied and avoiding bankruptcy.
Durable Medical Equipment Loans(561) 640-2995Clinics Can Help distributes donated gently used medical equipment to people in need throughout Palm Beach County. The devices are cleaned and repaired, if necessary, before being loaned out. The range of equipment can be wide, including motorized wheelchairs and rollators, although availability is subject to donations.

What to Consider About Memory Care in Boca Raton

Boca Raton’s memory care facilities are licensed and regulated by the Bureau of Health Facility Regulation. It issues licenses to those that satisfy stringent rules relating to resident care, health and safety and fire safety. The bureau investigates complaints about facilities and conducts periodic unannounced inspections to determine if they’re continuing to comply with the terms of their licenses.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Boca Raton

  • Boca Raton’s average cost of living index, based on a national average of 100, is 120.8, which suggests the city is costlier than most. However, the figure is swayed by housing costs, which are expensive but unlikely to concern a memory care resident. The health care cost index of 101 is below Florida’s average of 102.3, which suggests medical care may be slightly more affordable in Boca Raton.
  • Overall, Boca Raton is one of Florida’s safer cities, despite occasional spurts that see instances of property crime rise slightly above the national average. Violent crime is very low, at 13.1 (on a scale of 0 to 100). Families worried about the property crime rate may appreciate that to be licensed, memory care facilities must have strict security measures in place, such as keypad-entry doors and surveillance cameras.
  • Rainfall averaging 60 inches annually results in high levels of humidity in Boca Raton throughout the year, particularly between June and September. However, the city’s seniors don’t face extreme temperatures as winter lows are a cool 58 degrees, while summer highs are a pleasantly warm 90 degrees. 
  • Sperling’s BestPlaces gives Boca Raton a good health cost index of 96.3/100. Factors adding to the score include the city’s work with the EPA’s Superfund program to clean contaminated land and the excellent quality of air coming in from the Atlantic Ocean. The city can also boast of having 254 physicians per 100,000 people (an increase of 44 on the national average).
  • Two hospitals serve the city: Boca Raton Regional Hospital, which U.S. News and World Report rates as high-performing in six procedures/conditions, and West Boca Medical Center, a respected community hospital. The nearby City of Fort Lauderdale is also home to several highly regarded facilities, such as Holy Cross Health, which is ranked 24th in the state.
  • PalmTran is Palm Beach County’s bus service, which lets riders aged 65+ ride for half the normal fare on fixed routes and those who qualify for paratransit services ride for free. Curb-to-curb paratransit service fares are $3.50 per one-way trip.
