Overview of Cedar Creek Assisted Living

Cedar Creek Assisted Living is a 78-bed facility providing standard residential assistance, memory care, and short-term respite stays. The property provides dining services, housekeeping, laundry, a shared outdoor rocking porch, and a calendar of group exercise, crafts, games, and social outings. Staffing includes 24-hour personnel with nursing support, and the community accommodates diverse funding structures by accepting private insurance, HMO plans, Medicaid, and Veterans Affairs benefits. The location is car-dependent, with a Walk Score of 1.

State regulatory summaries tracking 69 separate inspections from June 2012 through September 2025 document 128 total line-item infractions over the property’s operational timeline. This cumulative frequency runs significantly above the standard Florida average, and because 67 of those 69 regulatory reviews resulted in at least one initial citation, the home carries a low long-term zero citations-per-inspection rate for absolute perfection.

Multi-year compliance logs note persistent challenges across several domains, including resident supervision, medication handling, admissions contracts, staff training records, emergency planning, and background screening clearances, resulting in 16 administrative fines totaling $23,000.

Prospective representatives evaluating regional residential options should thoroughly weigh these long-term government monitoring trends. Because the public database reveals a heavy cumulative citation count and numerous financial penalties spanning over a decade of state oversight, discussing these specific historical issues with the management team is a critical precaution. Arranging a personal walkthrough remains a practical step to verify the actual condition of the building, observe the day-to-day routines, and evaluate the provider’s modern compliance plans firsthand.
