These current public-data fields deserve follow-up with the facility and the official Medicare record. They are not a clinical risk score or a substitute for an in-person assessment.
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 77% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 18 findings, above the FL average of 7.3. We recommend asking the administrator directly: "How are you addressing recent staffing shortfalls?" These are not reasons to panic, but they are reasons to ask tough questions and visit in person.
Reviews for this facility are highly polarized, with some families praising the administrative staff and specific nurses, while others report severe neglect and poor communication. Frequent complaints involve slow response times, poor food quality, and staff indifference, leading to significant concerns about patient safety and medical oversight.

Key Review Excerpts
“They seem pleasant, but they didn't take patient's complaints seriously and we had to demand that patient be sent to hospital. Patient had fluid on lungs and was running a fever.”
“They have great doctors and a wonderful ARNP, Juliette, who goes above and beyond. The Director of Nursing is kind and goes out of her way to assist, as does the Administrator.”
“I ring the bell because I need help to push him into a more comfortable position and no one answers so I wait patiently and then I step out of the room to find 3 of the workers standing there just chatting away.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.

EveryPlace is a research directory. Facility information is compiled from public sources — Medicare.gov, state licensing portals, Google Places, and publicly available street-level imagery. Some summaries, interpretations, suggested questions, and pricing research are AI-generated or AI-assisted and may contain errors or omit important context. Listings do not constitute endorsement, recommendation, or advertisement, and we do not accept payment for placement. Families should verify all details directly with the facility and the original sources linked above before making any care decisions. See our Research Policy for our editorial standards, correction process, and image-removal policy.
These are the 6 closest facilities in our data within 10 miles. Proximity does not mean they provide the same care type or have stronger quality signals, so compare each profile and verify services directly.
