Overview of Strive at Fern Park

Strive at Fern Park sits in the Casselberry neighborhood of Fern Park, Florida, about 1.76 miles from AdventHealth Altamonte Springs. The two-story, 125-bed building is operated by Strive Senior Living under administrator Carrie M. Vick, and has been running for eight years. Floor plans span studios, one-bedrooms, and two-bedrooms, which gives incoming residents some practical flexibility in how they land.

The community serves both assisted living and memory care residents, covering a meaningful spread of care needs within a single address. Staff speak English and Spanish, a useful detail in a county as linguistically mixed as Seminole. Pets are welcome. The activities list is broader than what many communities this size have: arts and crafts, cooking classes, dancing, exercise classes, theater and movies, and yoga are all listed.

The Walk Score of 36 puts the neighborhood in somewhat walkable territory on paper, though realistically, residents and visitors depend on transportation for most outings. The facility is about 10.5 miles from the city center, which means it functions as a community-oriented placement rather than a destination convenient to urban services.

Florida’s Agency for Health Care Administration inspects the facility, with reviews tending to cover medication management, staffing credentials, and resident rights. Medicaid is accepted, which matters for families who need a coverage pathway that holds over a longer stay.

For families navigating assisted living or memory care in Seminole County, Strive at Fern Park is a bilingual, pet-friendly, mid-size option with Medicaid access and an activities program that goes beyond the minimum.

Larry’s Family 2 Care ALF operates a five-bed residential senior home in the Pinehurst Community neighborhood of Tampa, Florida. Administered by Kirenia Guzman Martinez, the property uses a small-scale board and care setup that allows for close oversight of its residents. The home is staffed to support multiple care levels, including independent living, assisted living, memory care, and nursing-level support, enabling individuals to adjust their services if their physical needs change over time.

The surrounding neighborhood is car-dependent, meaning staff and visitors require a vehicle for daily shopping and errands.

Daily routines include a structured mix of social and physical activities, such as exercise classes, music programs, dancing, gardening, and movie showings.

The bilingual staff coordinates care in both English and Spanish. State regulatory records indicate that past inspections focused primarily on administrative themes like recordkeeping, food services, and emergency plan layouts, with a history of resolving identified items through standard corrective actions.

Prospective representatives can contact the Tampa office to discuss vacancy updates and current monthly rates.

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.
