Depends on context: In general this refers to a place for people with significant memory problems to live where the staff have special training. There are no national or federal standards in place so every state has different (or no) standards. There are also caregivers who call themselves specialized in memory care. Again this implies there is training in how to work with and comensate for memory deficits.
