MC (Memory Care): Secured, specialized care for people living with Alzheimer's or dementia. RC (Respite Care): Short-term temporary care that gives family caregivers a break.

City and state of the facility. Used for mapping and state-average comparisons.
Licensed bed capacity (maximum allowed). Not the same as how many beds are currently filled.
A 0–100 score of a facility's regulatory inspection record, shown as a letter and compared with other facilities of the same kind in the same state. This is a proprietary Assisted Living Magazine grade. It is not a government rating. A dash means we have no inspection data for that facility.
Indicates whether residents are allowed to have pets in the facility.
Third-party neighborhood walkability score (0–100). Convenience/context metric, not a healthcare quality measure.
Name of the licensed owner, operator, or managing entity as filed with the state. Useful for grouping facilities under the same organization.
Count of regulatory inspections in the reporting window. Higher volume can reflect more oversight visits, complaint-driven surveys, or routine licensure cycles.
Share of inspections that resulted in citations, expressed as a percentage of total inspections in the window.
Total count of citations (cited regulatory issues) recorded in the selected reporting period. Read alongside inspection counts for context.
The average number of citations this facility receives each time it's inspected, calculated as total citations ÷ total inspections. A lower number suggests more consistent compliance with safety and care standards.
Reported profit orientation for the operator or facility (e.g. for-profit vs nonprofit), as provided in state licensing or disclosure data.
Total monetary fines or penalties in the reporting window from the state source. A single large fine can dominate this figure.
A named contact for the facility. Hover the name to see their role — Administrator (state administrator of record or facility-provided administrator), Nursing Director, Medical Director, or Staff. The most authoritative available is shown.
Housing or bed configuration options (e.g. studio, shared), often from facility-reported amenities and licensing details.

The Canopy at Waldenwoods

2051 Walden Woods Dr, Plant City, FL 33563
Overview of The Canopy at Waldenwoods

The Canopy at Waldenwoods offers assisted living and memory care in Plant City, Florida, in the Walden Woods neighborhood. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while allowing a resident to keep an apartment. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering. Having both care levels can suit a resident whose needs may grow over time, since moving between them can happen without leaving the community.

The community has 80 beds, with studio and one bedroom apartments that offer either a single private space or a larger layout for one resident. Respite care is available for short stays. That can help when a family caregiver needs to travel or recover. Payment options include insurance and/or HMO.

A salon and barber provide hair care services within the community, while crafts and game rooms give residents dedicated spaces for those activities. Scheduled transportation provides rides for planned outings or appointments. Pets are allowed, so residents may bring a pet with them. A Walk Score of 44 places the area in a car dependent band, meaning most errands require a car or a ride for a resident who no longer drives. Walden Woods FL Tenant operates the community, and Brittany Esposito serves as administrator.

Overview of The Promenade

The Promenade is a senior living community on U.S. Highway 1 in Sebastian, Florida, roughly two and a half miles from the city center in Indian River County. It offers a full continuum under one roof, with assisted living, independent living, and memory care, which means residents can shift between levels of support without leaving the community they know. The Promenade is operated by Pleasantville of Sebastian LLC and managed by Concordis Senior Living, with Jennifer Courtney serving as administrator. The community accepts insurance and HMO coverage as well as Veteran Affairs benefits.

With 125 beds across 125 private units, this is one of the larger communities in the Sebastian area. Apartments come in one bedroom and two bedroom layouts, and floor plans range from roughly 295 square feet up to 785 square feet, so there is real variation in how much space a resident can choose. That range gives couples and residents who want a second room genuine options, rather than a single standard unit.

Daily support is built around professional staff on site around the clock and an emergency call system in every residence. Housekeeping and laundry are handled weekly, and maintenance is covered, which removes the upkeep that often becomes difficult to manage at home. Staff speak both English and Spanish. Transportation services help residents keep outside appointments and errands on the calendar.

Life inside the community leans social. The activity calendar includes arts and crafts, cooking classes, dancing, exercise classes, games and cards, gardening, music programs, theater and movie nights, and organized shopping trips and outings. There is a dining room, a full service salon, and fitness and recreation programming on site, and pets are welcome. Together these give residents a reason to leave their apartment each day without needing to leave the property.

State inspections by the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration have generally pointed to matters of resident rights and documentation, including care agreements, advance directive records, and medication administration and storage practices, with findings addressed and corrected over time. Families touring the community may want to ask how those documentation and medication processes are handled day to day.

The setting is a car dependent stretch of highway, with a Walk Score of 18, so most errands and visits involve driving. For family living nearby in Sebastian or along the Treasure Coast, the highway location makes the community straightforward to reach.

Patrick Manor has 55 beds, a size that can support a smaller community where staff and residents get to know each other.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Florida

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.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.

How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?

This page features 1062 assisted living facilities in Florida. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Florida?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Florida, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Florida?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
