Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care in Ohio
What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Ohio?
Assisted living in Ohio supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence.

Does Ohio Medicaid cover memory care?
Ohio Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, but most states (including Ohio) 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.
