Overview of Park of the Palms

Park of the Palms is a 40-bed, non-profit assisted living and memory care home. The broader campus features independent living units, an RV park, guest lodging, an events center, and 24-hour staffing. Specialized cognitive support is managed through the property’s Gilbert Lodge memory care program, which is structured to handle various stages of dementia.

Health department documentation spanning 13 years logs 21 total deficiencies across 21 separate visits, which averages out to 1.6 citations per year. Because every single inspection historically turned up at least one minor issue, the facility has a long-term history of missing a zero citations-per-inspection rate for perfect reviews.

Earlier evaluations primarily flagged repetitive problems with administrative paperwork and resident care rights. However, the data highlights a major upward trend over the last five years, with the home averaging just 0.8 deficiencies annually, a rate 83% better than the Florida baseline. Spotless reviews were recorded in 2019 and 2023, and the most recent routine evaluation from May 2025 also came back completely clear. The state has never issued any financial fines or severe enforcement actions against the provider.

Interested individuals looking over regional care options can take reassurance from the community’s strong regulatory performance in recent years. Since the older files show past difficulties with resident documentation and record-keeping that have since been resolved, the current data reflects a well-organized and stable management team. It is still a good idea to schedule an on-site visit to inspect the campus layout yourself and speak with the admissions team about how they coordinate family guest stays and memory care routines.
