10 Best Memory Care Facilities in Gulf Resort Beach, FL

My mother is a resident at Bayport of Fort Walton Beach. The staff is very approachable, friendly, and professional. The housekeepers are wonderful! They have such a good attitude. I have found the staff at Bay Port to be willing to discuss my mother any time I am there. When Covid was diagnosed in some of the residents, they quickly got the word out to us along with the procedures they were implementing. The move in was a breeze. We were able to move in all the furniture and belongings while my mother was still in a rehab facility. So when she arrived, they rolled out the red carpet (literally) and made her feel welcome. It took my mother several weeks to settle in. And I think she still may not fully understand that she is there for the rest of her life. But the staff goes out of their way to support her. They even recommended a behavioral health nurse to help mom settle in.

The staff members at Brookdale Destin are absolutely incredible. This community is has the best value in the area by far and they offer the best quality of care. Their care services are fantastic and they offer a bunch of activities. Some activities they had were travel days, where the bus service would take the residents out shopping, to the grocery store or to their doctors appointments. It is located in a really nice upscale area, you can walk the property which is surrounded by lakes and bridges. We were able to visit our loved one during COVID which was great. We were allowed to sit outside in a lawn chair and be separated by the screened in porch our loved one had. His room was like a one bedroom apartment with a kitchenette. The food is top of the line, our loved one is a very picky eater and he never had one complaint. This community goes to a level one medical care in any room and throughout the whole entire facility. It is also located less than a quarter mile from the major hospital.

Belvedere Commons is a very welcoming place. The staff are very attuned to the resident's needs It just feels so welcoming and makes you feel a part of the community. When we toured, my mom really liked that smaller aspect of the community and how friendly everyone was. From the beginning, it just seemed like a really great fit. I have been so impressed with the staff's commitment to her safety, well being, and mental health. My mom expressed her gratitude to us for find this place for her.
