A 0–100 score of a facility's regulatory inspection record, shown as a letter and compared with other facilities of the same kind in the same state. This is a proprietary Assisted Living Magazine grade. It is not a government rating. A dash means we have no inspection data for that facility.
Count of regulatory inspections in the reporting window. Higher volume can reflect more oversight visits, complaint-driven surveys, or routine licensure cycles.

Total count of citations (cited regulatory issues) recorded in the selected reporting period. Read alongside inspection counts for context.
The average number of citations this facility receives each time it's inspected, calculated as total citations ÷ total inspections. A lower number suggests more consistent compliance with safety and care standards.

Total monetary fines or penalties in the reporting window from the state source. A single large fine can dominate this figure.

Sodalis Jacksonville

7620 Timberlin Park Blvd, Jacksonville, FL 32256
Overview of Sodalis Jacksonville

Sodalis Jacksonville sits in the Southside neighborhood of Jacksonville, Florida, over on Timberlin Park Boulevard. It handles three kinds of care in one place: assisted living, memory care, and respite care. Put simply, that covers people who need help with daily routines, people living with memory loss, and people who just need a short stay to get back on their feet before going home.

It’s a moderately sized place, 62 beds, and every unit is private. So a resident gets their own room, not a shared one. The neighborhood lands somewhere in the middle on walkability, with a Walk Score of 45 out of 100. You can reach a few things on foot. For most of your errands, though, you’ll need a ride.

The activity calendar here is steady and varied. Residents can do arts and crafts, exercise classes, card games, gardening, music programs, shopping trips, social outings, and movie or theater nights. That’s a decent spread, and it leaves room for different kinds of people, the ones who want quiet hands-on hobbies and the ones who want to be out and social.

A couple of practical things round it out: the staff speaks both English and Spanish, which makes a real difference for a Spanish-speaking family trying to talk through care and daily needs in their own language. And the community takes Medicaid, which is the kind of detail that can shape whether a place is even an option for a family.

Sodalis Jacksonville is a mid-sized community built to flex across different care needs, in a part of Jacksonville where a car still does most of the work.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care in Florida

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Florida?

Assisted living in Florida supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

Does Florida Medicaid cover memory care?

Florida Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, but most states (including Florida) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is memory care?

Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, with secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and routines built to reduce confusion and wandering.

How many memory care communities are listed on this page?

This page features 792 memory care communities in Florida. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right memory care community in Florida?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Florida, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting memory care communities in Florida?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
