What to Consider About Memory Care in Port Orange

In Port Orange, memory care facilities are officially licensed as assisted living facilities, and they’re regulated by the Agency for Health Care Administration, Bureau of Health Facility Regulation. These facilities comply with regulations related to housing, care planning and nutrition and medication services, as well as dementia-specific requirements related to building security and staff training.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Port Orange

  • Florida’s lack of state income taxes means seniors don’t pay income taxes at the state level on any retirement income, including pension income and retirement savings earned in other states. This may let seniors put more money toward memory care expenses in the Port Orange region.
  • Halifax Health - Medical Center of Port Orange is located in the city proper, giving memory care residents access to 24-hour emergency care and a full range of inpatient and outpatient services. This hospital has been named among the top 50 hospitals in the nation for cardiovascular care, and it has over 160 doctors on staff. While the number of physicians per 100,000 people in Port Orange is 17% below the national norm, many memory care facilities have on-call doctors who provide routine care.
  • On a 10-point comfort index, Port Orange scores 3.8 for its high temperatures and muggy conditions. Average daytime temperatures in this city range from 68 to 90 degrees Fahrenheit, and humidity levels tend to be very high in the late summer. Fortunately, many memory care facilities have indoor activities to help residents stay safe and engaged during the warm months.
  • Crime, especially violent crime, is uncommon in Port Orange, providing the environment many families of prospective memory care residents are seeking for their loved ones. On a 100-point index, the property crime score for the city is 35, which is in line with the national norm of 35.4, and the rate of incidents has been trending downward for several years. Additionally, the city scores 9.4 for violent crime versus the national norm of 22.7.
  • The cost of living in Port Orange is a little lower than state and national norms, appealing to many seniors and families seeking affordable memory care options. On a 100-point index based on living costs in the nation as a whole, the city scores 97.1. This is a few points lower than the Florida average of 103.1.
