Position within Florida
11 citations — more than 72% of the 3,013 licensed assisted living facilities in Florida. Compared only within Florida: a citation from AHCA means what it means in Florida, and there is no national assisted living record to compare to. Counted over 5 years, which holds two or three routine inspections. How this is calculated
Not in this record
Fire and life safety. In Florida the fire safety inspection of an assisted living facility is done by the local fire authority under the Florida Fire Prevention Code, not by AHCA, and those reports are not part of this record. What AHCA does cite about the building — physical plant, emergency management and emergency power — is here.
