Memory care is secured, dementia-specific assisted living. Texas requires any facility marketing memory care to file an Alzheimer's/dementia Disclosure Statement with HHSC under 26 TAC Section 553.264, rather than issuing a separate memory-care license.
We list 7 verified memory care options in Fort Worth.
What to watch for with memory care in Fort Worth
- Ask to see the current Alzheimer's/dementia disclosure statement, by name.
- Ask specifically about wandering and exit-seeking. Secured courtyards, door alarms and staffing patterns vary far more than brochures suggest.
- There is usually no published median price for memory care. Get quotes in writing from each community.

The Fort Worth market specifically
As the metro's hub, Fort Worth has the widest range of senior housing stock of any city here, from decades-old communities near the medical district around Harris Methodist and JPS to brand-new construction in far north Alliance and far south Chisholm Trail.
Families comparing Fort Worth communities should decide early whether proximity to the medical district or proximity to a specific family member's home matters more, since the city's senior housing spans nearly 20 miles from near-west to far-north.
What the contract does that the tour does not
The residency agreement decides what happens when things change: how care levels are reassessed and repriced, how much notice is required on either side, what the deposit covers and whether it is refundable.
