Does Florida license memory care separately?
No. Florida has no stand-alone memory-care license. Memory care in Tampa Bay is a secured dementia program inside an AHCA-licensed assisted living facility, often one that also holds an ECC or LNS license. A community that advertises special Alzheimer's care must meet added training and disclosure duties under s. 429.178, F.S.
How was this memory care list built?
It includes every AHCA-licensed ALF in Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco and Hernando counties that reports a memory-care program in its FloridaHealthFinder profile. That field is reported by the facility, so ask each community to show you the secured area and its dementia-training records.
What is the difference between assisted living and memory care in Florida?
Assisted living is a license; memory care is a secured dementia program that runs inside a licensed ALF. The table shows what each one is and isn't.
| Question | Assisted living (ALF) | Memory care in Florida |
|---|---|---|

| Who is it for? | Is for adults who need help with bathing, dressing, meals or medications | Is for people with Alzheimer's or another dementia who need a secured, structured setting |
| Is the building secured? | Isn't required to lock exits | Is expected to control exits and run elopement procedures; ask to see them |
| What extra rules apply? | Is covered by core ALF staffing and training rules | Is covered by added dementia-training and disclosure duties when a community advertises special dementia care (s. 429.178, F.S.) |
| Is 24-hour nursing included? | Isn't; nursing depends on an LNS or ECC license | Isn't automatically; check the ECC / LNS license and nurse coverage |
| Typical 2026 cost in Tampa Bay | $3,500–$5,500/month | $4,800–$7,000/month |
How do you verify a memory care community's license in Florida?
Search the provider by name or license number on FloridaHealthFinder (quality.healthfinder.fl.gov), AHCA's public lookup. Its profile shows license status, capacity, owner and any specialty licenses, and links to inspection reports and final orders.
Check that the license is active, that it covers the care your parent needs, and read the two most recent inspections before you visit.
