Who is a good fit for assisted living in Florida?
Assisted living is a great option for seniors who need extra support or who need assistance with day-to-day tasks. Every senior is different and each situation is unique. However, there are a few signs that assisted living could be the best (and healthiest) next decision for you or your loved one.
Regularly feeling unstable or experiencing a recent fall, chronic pain or other conditions that are becoming harder to manage, feelings of loneliness or isolation—especially when you still want to be social: these are all characteristics of someone who would benefit from a move into an assisted living community. If you’re trying to determine if the time is right, give us a call; our team is here to help!
Are assisted living apartments furnished at Mirabelle?
Aside from kitchenette appliances, the assisted living apartments at Mirabelle do not come furnished. Our senior living community is designed to be reminiscent of home, and we encourage residents to bring their own belongings, including a bed and smaller pieces of furniture.

Can assisted living be deducted from taxes?
In most cases, only the medical component of assisted living costs is deductible. Living costs like room and board are not tax deductible. However, there are exceptions if the resident is in the assisted living facility primarily for medical care. We recommend consulting a tax advisor with questions regarding your specific circumstances.
