Overview of Westchester of Jacksonville

Westchester of Jacksonville is a 102-bed assisted living residence located 9.8 miles from the city center in Jacksonville, Florida. Managed by administrator Brianna Gruen and operated by Jax Alf Opco LLC, the facility is situated in a highly walkable neighborhood featuring a Walk Score of 81. The facility maintains an occupancy rate of 72.9%, indicating prompt availability for incoming seniors, and reports an average length of stay of 87 days.

Looking at its historical regulatory profile, the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration has recorded 48 total deficiencies across 39 separate inspection cycles since July 2012. This tracks out to an annual average of 2.8 citations, which performs 39% better than the Florida state benchmark of 4.6. During the most recent field review on October 30, 2025, state examiners noted two moderate infractions involving internal records retention and resident care standards. Over the last decade, routine citations have touched on physical plant maintenance, paperwork documentation, dietary setups, and emergency readiness. The business entity has never faced federal enforcement penalties over the past three years, and its state financial history lists only two minor fines totaling $1,300 since 2012.

On the floor, a 24-hour staffing model employs trained nurses and nursing assistants to coordinate daily personal care alongside specialized physical rehabilitation tracks. Residents have direct access to visiting physician services for routine health screenings, while the activities department handles a daily schedule of dancing, gardening, arts and crafts, music, board games, and group shopping trips. The current population is heavily geared toward affordable community access, with a funding breakdown of 82% Medicaid recipients, 8% Medicare rehabilitation patients, and 10% private-pay clients.

Interested individuals looking for immediate placement or short-term transitional care can leverage the center’s open inventory and high walkability to simplify their transition. The 102-bed residential layout serves community members who want an active, peer-filled environment but require the security of on-site nursing assistants and structured medical tracking.
