What memory care actually includes
Memory care is a secured, structured setting staffed by caregivers trained in dementia care, built for residents who wander, resist redirection, or are no longer safe in standard assisted living.
In Maryland, this level of care is regulated under an Assisted Living Program license under COMAR 10.07.14, rated Level 1, 2, or 3 according to how much hands-on care the program is approved to provide, overseen by the Maryland Office of Health Care Quality (OHCQ). A typical monthly range is $7,500 to $11,000 a month.
