Overview of The Grande Senior Living

The Grande Senior Living is a 162-bed for-profit retirement facility located in Brooksville, Florida, operated by Grande Senior Living LLC and managed by administrator Melanie Gillan Paperini. The large-scale campus integrates independent living, standard assisted living, and memory care structures on a single property. The multi-level framework focuses on residential senior housing that pairs daily personal care with on-site clinical nursing oversight.

State administrative profiles tracked by the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration document an annual average of 2.6 deficiencies over a recent five-year period, performing 43% better than the Florida state norm. Compliance archives note a clear operational shift; while 33 older historical inspections through 2018 consistently identified minor infractions involving record keeping and physical plant upkeep, the facility subsequently established a perfect run.

Every single evaluation from September 2019 through October 2023, spanning 13 consecutive routine, complaint, and expansion reviews, concluded with a citations-per-inspection rate of zero. Public regulatory indexes show an absence of severe enforcement bans or active operating freezes, and the provider’s financial history registers seven minor state assessments totaling $3,500.

On the floor, daily care systems utilize a 24-hour staffing model to manage medication delivery and wellness tracking in English. Basic residential fees encompass building maintenance alongside water, electricity, and basic cable utilities. The culinary department prepares three daily chef-style meals supplemented by routine hydration and snack programs, while the activities team guides scheduled transportation for social outings, dancing, exercise classes, and gardening.

Prospective residents seeking a large-scale senior community with a multi-level continuum of care can utilize the facility’s extensive streak of perfect audits to confirm its modern compliance standing.

Overview of The Vineyard Inn

The Vineyard Inn is a 75-bed family-owned assisted living facility located in Seminole, Florida. Managed by administrator Sandra Lea Houser and operated by Cana Corporation, the facility is situated in a highly walkable neighborhood featuring a Walk Score of 84. The facility maintains private and semi-private residential options with monthly pricing ranging from $2,900 to $6,500, offering a combination of standard assisted living and specialized memory care tracks.

Looking at its historical regulatory profile, the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration has recorded 37 total deficiencies across 30 separate inspection cycles spanning more than a decade. This tracks out to an annual average of 2.8 citations, which performs 46% better than the Florida state benchmark. Compliance data reflects a distinct upward trend, as both the June 2024 review and the most recent field evaluation in March 2025 concluded with a citations-per-inspection rate of zero. Over the last few years, routine citations touched on record keeping, medication handling, and staff training protocols, which were resolved under standard internal corrections. The business entity has never faced active enforcement actions, and its state financial history lists only a single historical fine of $4,000.

On the floor, a 24-hour staffing model implements individualized care plans and monitors integrated call-light emergency systems. Residents have direct access to visiting physician services, scheduled transit logistics for shopping outings, spiritual care, and an on-site beauty salon. The activities department handles a daily schedule of cooking classes, film screenings, fitness programs, music sessions, arts and crafts, and gardening alongside restaurant-style dining. Payer structures are designed for financial flexibility, accepting Medicare, Medicaid, private insurance/HMO policies, and Veteran Affairs benefits.

Interested individuals looking for a walkable neighborhood location paired with an established family-operated structure can leverage the center’s consecutive error-free evaluations to simplify their transition. The 75-bed residential layout serves community members who want to preserve an active lifestyle but require the security of on-site nursing services and structured dementia oversight.

Overview of A Country Place Assisted Living Facility

A Country Place Assisted Living Facility, at 10515 Memorial Hwy in Tampa’s Town N Country Alliance neighborhood, covers a lot of ground: assisted living, memory care, respite care, and adult day care, all under one operator. Villas Of Tampa, LLC runs it, with Robert Alan Loomis as administrator. Staff here speak both English and Spanish, which matters more than people sometimes realize when a family is trying to communicate clearly about a loved one’s care.

The building itself is single-story, 24 beds, split between private and semi-private rooms. Walkability sits in the middle of the range, a Walk Score of 37 out of 100, somewhat walkable, so a few errands are doable on foot but most still call for a car or a ride.

On the care side, there’s a doctor on staff plus licensed nurses and CNAs, and respite care is available for families who need a short-term stay rather than a permanent move. The adult day care option adds real flexibility here too, useful for families who need daytime support without a full residential commitment.

Daily life includes transportation services and a genuine activity lineup: exercise classes, gardening, and organized social events and outings among them. Insurance and HMO plans, Medicaid, and VA benefits are all accepted, which opens up several ways to actually pay for care. Inspections at this facility have tended to focus on staffing and staff credentials specifically, rather than anything touching direct resident care.

Four care types, bilingual staff, and a real activity calendar: that’s an unusually flexible setup for a single 24-bed community, one built for families whose care needs might shift between residential, respite, and daytime support over time.

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 1047 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.
