Position within Florida

34 citations — more than 97% 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.

Which alerts

This is the state licensing record, not the federal nursing home survey. Your address is used for these alerts and nothing else.

Building-related citations

The citations about the building itself — physical plant and emergency management. Usually the maintenance side’s to fix.
