Seasons Largo

4175 E Bay Dr, Clearwater, FL 33764-6985
Overview of Seasons Largo

Seasons Largo is a 92-bed assisted living facility that offers memory care and short-term respite stays. The building focuses on daily, personalized care and memory support to help residents manage their day-to-day routines in a structured setting.

State records covering 11 years and 29 inspections show a total of 32 deficiencies. That averages out to about 3 citations a year, which is actually 35% better than the Florida state average. However, the catch is that every single inspection turned up at least one violation, meaning the building has a historical zero citations-per-inspection rate for entirely clean reviews.

Over the years, the facility ran into repeated problems with staff training, medication records, building upkeep, and emergency planning. Recent reports are a bit mixed: a June 2024 review was completely clear, but an October 2025 inspection flagged an issue with financial stability. The facility has fixed these past problems, and they have never been fined or faced enforcement actions.

Prospective residents looking at this facility will want to see how these ongoing training and paperwork patterns are handled today. Since the long-term data shows minor but persistent citations over the years, it is a good idea to ask the director for updates on their latest corrective steps. Dropping by for a visit to check out the building’s upkeep yourself and watching how the staff interacts with residents can help you figure out if it is the right fit.

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Florida?

Assisted living in Florida supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Florida?

Assisted living in Florida is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does Florida Medicaid cover assisted living?

Florida Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Florida) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.
