Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Fleming Island

  • While Fleming Island doesn’t have its own hospital, area residents have access to high-quality medical facilities, such as MCA Florida Orange Park Hospital and Ascension St. Vincent’s Clay County Hospital, both of which sit within 8 miles of the city. To promote access to care, many memory care facilities provide medical care coordination services and nonemergency medical transportation.
  • In the Jacksonville metro, where Fleming Island resides, the American Lung Association reports low ozone pollution levels and moderate particle pollution levels. Fortunately, many local memory care facilities improve indoor air quality through air purification systems and organize indoor activities throughout the year, enabling residents to stay busy regardless of outside conditions.
  • Because Florida doesn’t have a state income tax, seniors only pay income taxes at the federal level on their retirement income, regardless of where they lived prior to retirement. This may leave more money in the bank for memory care in Fleming Island.
  • The crime rate in Fleming Island aligns with national norms, which may provide reassurance to families researching local memory care services. On a 100-point index, the city scores 19.4 for violent offenses, which comes in slightly below the national norm of 22.7. The property crime rate falls in line with the nationwide average at 35.6.
  • Fleming Island has warm weather throughout the year, with daytime temperatures ranging from 65 degrees Fahrenheit in January to 92 degrees Fahrenheit in July. Residents see about 51 inches of rain and numerous thunderstorms throughout the year, with an average of 115 days of precipitation annually. To support engagement, many memory care facilities provide indoor activities throughout the year to keep residents busy when outside conditions are inhospitable.
