O.s.j Family Place offers home care, hospice care, and memory care in Orlando, FL. Home care provides support where a person lives, hospice care focuses on comfort and support at the end of life, and memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone living with dementia who may be at risk of wandering.
With 5 beds, the community may be a good fit for someone who prefers a smaller setting where staff and residents can get to know each other.

Overview of Preferred Care at Home of Northeast Orlando
Since 1984, Preferred Care at Home of Northeast Orlando has been helping older adults stay in their own homes instead of moving into a facility. The agency’s office is at 302 South Graham Avenue, Suite C, in the Northeast Orlando neighborhood, an area with a Walk Score of 75. That’s very walkable, so most daily errands don’t require a car, and nearby hospitals, pharmacies, dining, and shopping are reachable on foot or with a short drive.
Day-to-day support covers the basics that let someone keep living independently. Caregivers stop by for companionship, medication reminders, and hands-on help with hygiene, meals, and getting dressed. Families can also lean on respite care when a caregiver needs a break, and scheduling flexes from a few hours a week up to full live-in coverage depending on what the household actually needs.
For families who need more than scheduled visits, around-the-clock care options exist too, so support can grow as a client’s needs change over time. Robin Wilkie is listed as the agency’s leadership contact for anyone who wants to talk through options directly before committing to a plan.
There’s no building, no rooms, and no move-in process here. Preferred Care at Home of Northeast Orlando is built around one thing: keeping people in the home they already have, with as much or as little hands-on support as their situation calls for.
