Assisted Living, Memory Care & Respite Care · St. Augustine, FL

Overview of Benton House of St. Johns

In St. Augustine, FL, Benton House of St. Johns has assisted living, memory care, and respite care. Assisted living residents live in their own apartment, and staff give a hand when it’s time to bathe, dress, or take medication. Memory care keeps a supervised, secure environment for residents at risk of wandering.

Respite can cover a family caregiver’s own recovery, or a trip that takes them away. Having assisted living and memory care together lets a person whose needs grow remain where they are.

The Help at Home program is also available. Errands mostly take a car, since 42 is a car-dependent Walk Score. Residents are free to bring a pet.

The building is single-story, with studio and one-bedroom layouts. A studio is one room of private living, and a one-bedroom adds a separate bedroom.
