What to Consider About Memory Care in Hialeah

The agency also enforces increased standards for dementia care facilities related to caregiver ratios, training and recreational activities.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Hialeah

  • Hialeah serves as a member of the AARP Age-Friendly Network, meaning it has policies in place to foster a welcoming environment for seniors, and it has a livability score of 51, putting it in the top half of U.S. communities for seniors. Several metrics positively affect the city’s livability score, including the high number of shopping and recreational amenities and public transportation options.
  • Two hospitals serve memory care residents in Hialeah, including Hialeah Hospital and Larkin Community Hospital Palm Springs. Both hospitals have neurology departments with health care professionals who diagnose and treat a range of neurological conditions, including Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia.
  • The American Lung Association gives Miami-Dade County, where Hialeah resides, a B for short-term particle and ozone pollution levels. The organization reports that the typical year has 2 days in which pollution levels may be high enough to affect seniors’ health, indicating that outdoor conditions are generally safe for vulnerable individuals.
  • Florida doesn’t have a state income tax, which means seniors in Hialeah only pay federal taxes on their retirement income, regardless of their annual earnings. This may help some seniors pay for memory care services in the Hialeah region.
  • Hialeah sees long, hot summers and very mild winters, making the city an appealing place for prospective memory care residents who are sensitive to cold temperatures. The hot season, which runs from the beginning of June through late September, brings average daytime temperatures of 90 degrees Fahrenheit and muggy conditions nearly half of the time. The cooler season lasts from December through early March and has an average daytime temperature of 78 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Hialeah ranks among the more expensive cities in Florida for seniors, with a cost of living that's about 19% over the national norm and 16 points above the state average. Fortunately, many memory care facilities accept Florida’s Medicaid Long-term Care Waiver, which covers residential services for qualified individuals.
