This state does not record which communities are secured for dementia, so no column here can tell you. Ask each one directly. This state does not record which communities accept Medicaid. Ask each one, and ask the state Medicaid office which of them it currently contracts with.

Capacity is how many residents the license permits, not how many places are free.
