The Pointe at Boca Raton, 75 beds in Boca Raton, FL, offers assisted living and independent living. At the assisted living level, staff join in on dressing, bathing, and taking medication. Independent living is the other side of that, the community’s services with none of the care.

Boca del Mar is the neighborhood. Residences come as one-bedroom or two-bedroom, the larger of them for a couple moving in together and the smaller one for private space for one person. Respite care is the short-stay option, useful when a family caregiver has travel or a period of recovery ahead of them.

Medicaid and Medicare are the two payers. Medicaid matters where a resident’s savings will not carry a long stay, and Medicare goes to short-term skilled care after a hospital admission rather than to living there.

Rehabilitation services are on the list, and so is transportation. A library, a spa, and a patio are the places to pass time. Having both care levels means a growing need doesn’t necessarily turn into a search for a second time. Pauline Jackson Lawson is the administrator, and SNH BRFL Tenant, LLC operates the community.

Grandview Retirement Center offers assisted living and residential care in Pensacola’s North Northwest neighborhood in Florida, with 85 beds.

The home accepts insurance, HMO coverage, and Medicaid, giving families more than one way to help pay for care. Residents can enjoy activities such as dancing, games, card games, social events, and outings. Pets are welcome here. The home also offers transportation services and fitness and recreation programs.

The Florida Agency for Health Care Administration has inspected the home for more than a decade. Inspection records generally show that the home meets state health and safety standards.
