What to Consider About Memory Care in Kissimmee

In Kissimmee and across Florida, the Bureau of Health Facility Regulation is tasked with licensing and regulating all memory care facilities.

Facilities undergo inspections that check for compliance and demand reform if any problems are detected.

  • There are several hospitals and health care facilities in Kissimmee that provide everything from wound care to cardiology to neurological care. Residents can choose between HCA Florida Osceola Hospital, Osceola Regional Trauma Center, AdventHealth Kissimmee and numerous others. 
  • The Osceola Council on Aging provides bus transportation for seniors to various community events and resources. This includes medical appointments, shopping at Publix and Walmart and lunch at the Senior Dining Club. However, most memory care communities provide their own secure transportation.
  • The cost of living is about 2.4% lower in Kissimmee overall when compared to the country’s average. The area has slightly above-average costs for health care, but the appeal of the warm climate and access to many resources makes Kissimmee a convenient place for seniors to live.
