Overview of Discovery Village at Tampa Palms

Discovery Village at Tampa Palms offers assisted living, independent living, and memory care in Tampa, FL. Assisted living provides help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while a resident keeps a private living space; independent living provides private living with community services and no daily care; and memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering. With multiple care levels on one campus, a resident whose needs grow may be able to change care settings without leaving the community, so it may be a good fit for someone who wants the possibility of continuing care in one place.

The community has 120 beds and offers suites, one-bedroom residences, and two-bedroom residences. A one-bedroom layout provides a private living space, while a two-bedroom option can suit a couple moving together or someone who wants a companion.
