Coral Plaza sits at 5850 Margate Blvd in Margate, FL, and offers apartment-style senior living with a focus on both assisted living and memory care, with studio, semi-private, and one-bedroom options, averaging about $2,250 for a semi-private room, and the rooms often come furnished with their own bathrooms, kitchenettes, heating and air-conditioning, cable TV, and emergency call systems for safety, while every apartment includes daily housekeeping, laundry services, and Wi-Fi, making sure residents have less to worry about. Dedicated memory care is front and center here, held in a secure area built to serve people with Alzheimer's and dementia using staff trained for residents struggling with memory or behavior, and everyone in memory care wears a special bracelet that alerts staff if someone tries to leave, so wandering stays under control and loved ones remain safe. Pets are welcome, so residents can keep their cats or dogs close, and those needing extra help can get assistance with everyday needs like dressing, bathing, moving from beds to wheelchairs, and reminders for using the restroom, managing medicine, and keeping blood sugar steady if they have diabetes, including insulin injections and monitoring.
Staff is on duty 24-hours a day, ready for emergencies, and they're trained in using mechanical lifts and two-person transfers, caring for people who might not get around on their own, including those in wheelchairs or dealing with incontinence, and they can support people who need small helps like standby aid, or bigger ones like full transfer assistance and non-ambulatory care, even handling some mild to major behavior challenges especially in the memory care wing. The meal program serves three restaurant-style meals a day, planned by chefs who strive to use fresh, local ingredients and will make special diets, whether for allergies or diabetes, with a social dining room, private dining for families, and menu-planning services, which makes mealtime a social highlight each day.
The whole community is wheelchair accessible with safety measures like fire sprinklers, nurse alert systems, a diesel generator for power outages, emergency call buttons in bathrooms and rooms, staffed nurse stations, and even an on-site doctor's office, plus pharmacy delivery and transportation for appointments. Common indoor spaces let residents spend time with each other, and there are rooms with calm colors and gentle furnishings for those with memory loss. Life here includes organized activities, live entertainment, exercise, fitness classes, and wellness programs, while outings, movie nights, art, and music programs try to keep minds and bodies active, with walking paths, a garden, a lounge, library, games, spa, beauty/barber shop, and transportation for outings or errands.
Coral Plaza makes room for independence and works to match services to each person's needs, offering both short-term stays and long-term options for up to 140 people, taking pride in creating a comfortable, safe environment full of small touches, like patios or balconies in some apartments and the option to keep beloved pets. Housekeeping, linen, and laundry services are included, and companionship is available for those living at home through the community's home care offerings. Religious services are available offsite, and planned activities focus on social, physical, and mental engagement. Coral Plaza has received awards for dining, activities, and staff friendliness, recognized by sources like U.S. News and World Report for its quality care, and is licensed by the state of Florida (license number 7861).
