The three-story residence, operated by Britton (Veranda Club) Trs LLC with Kevin Mitzner as administrator and American Trust Senior Care LLC as management company, gives residents access to Baptist Health Boca Raton Regional Hospital within 2.2 miles. The surrounding neighborhood is car-dependent, with the facility located 12.1 miles from downtown Boca Raton.

Amenities encompass a heated pool and spa, recreational programming (arts, dancing, exercise, games, gardening, music, theater, movies), shopping services, and organized outings. Care includes medication management, meal service, housekeeping and laundry, and transportation.

Staff fluently communicate in Creole, English, and Spanish.

A 13-year inspection history from August 2012 through September 2025 documents persistent compliance gaps. Of 25 state inspections, all 25 cited deficiencies; a 100% citation rate. The 47 accumulated citations represent 41% above Florida’s annual baseline, with deficiency themes consistently centering on medication assistance during self-administration, staffing adequacy standards, staff training completion (CPR, first aid, in-service, DNR protocols), food service and dietary compliance, emergency plan approval and facility environmental readiness, resident care and rights protections, background screening attestation, and elopement prevention.

The most recent inspection on September 22, 2025 identified deficiencies in elopement standards and emergency care equipment (AED) use by personnel.

Regulatory penalties remain modest: four fines totaling $6,000 represent 20% fewer enforcement actions and 48% lower fines than Florida’s typical assisted living community.

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 1053 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.
