Trinity Memory Care

8582 Old County Road 54, New Prt Rchy, FL 34653
Overview of Trinity Memory Care

Trinity Memory Care is a 60-bed memory care nursing facility located in New Port Richey, Florida, operated by Trinity Memory Care LLC and managed by administrator Robin Klinedinst. The privately owned community holds an 89.5% occupancy rate and focuses on clinical memory support and post-acute therapy, reporting an average resident length of stay of 97 days. Rates start at $2,800 monthly for semi-private studios, while private accommodation layouts range from $3,600 to $4,000.

Government compliance profiles tracked by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services award the property a 3-star overall rating, backed by a health evaluation history that outperforms the Florida state norm by 36.9%. Because this is a newly established building, state field examiners finalized its initial April 2025 licensure audit with a citations-per-inspection rate of zero. Long-stay clinical outcomes run 17.1% ahead of regional averages, showing positive tracking in preventive care and a low antipsychotic drug utilization rate of 6.6% versus the 8% state benchmark.

Daily direct nursing time tracks below standard Florida baselines at 3 hours and 17 minutes per resident, though operations remain balanced by a 1.45:1 staff-to-resident ratio that satisfies regional workforce mandates.

In terms of daily clinical delivery, a 160-member professional care team integrates registered nurses, practical nurses, certified nursing assistants, speech therapists, and dietary experts. Internal networks provide direct connections to an on-site pharmacy, localized physician visits, emergency call bells, and home health services. The kitchen prepares homecooked menus designed by a dietitian, while the activities program focuses on group exercises, musical tracks, interactive games, and social outings. The billing office coordinates flexible financial structures, accepting short-term private pay, Medicare rehabilitation funds, Medicaid, and Veteran Affairs coverage.

Older adults requiring dedicated memory care or post-acute physical therapy can look to this high-occupancy community’s flexible short-stay admission models. The 60-bed layout functions well for individuals experiencing progressive cognitive challenges who benefit from a high ratio of clinical specialists and focused therapeutic exercises.

The Capstone at Royal Palm

10621 Okeechobee Blvd, Royal Palm Beach, FL 33411
Overview of The Capstone at Royal Palm

The Capstone at Royal Palm is a 114-bed for-profit assisted living facility located in Royal Palm Beach, Florida, managed by administrator Debra Lewis and legally operated by Royal Palm Beach Slp LLC. The residential community is split into standard assisted living spaces, extended congregate care units, shared suites, and private studios. The building incorporates specialized amenities such as the Military Veterans Program alongside dedicated dementia care wings.

Files maintained by the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration register 12 total deficiencies across 11 inspection cycles over a four-year tracking window. While this operational frequency averages 1.8 citations annually, performing 61% better than the Florida state norm, the facility’s baseline data shows an increasing citation trajectory. Initial evaluations through late 2021 and an October 2022 complaint investigation concluded with a citations-per-inspection rate of zero. However, every subsequent state field review from August 2022 through July 2024 has identified infractions.

Recent audits noted compliance gaps across multiple categories, including a July 2024 review citing staffing standards and memory care programming, a December 2023 check regarding background screening paperwork, and a November 2022 evaluation highlighting dietary services and resident rights. Public registries track an enforcement status free of corporate financial fines or active license freezes, indicating that cited items were addressed through standard corrective updates.

Regarding day-to-day services, around-the-clock staffing includes licensed nursing support to manage daily health monitoring and medication assistance. The culinary department handles chef-prepared meal services, while the facility accommodates both English and Spanish-speaking residents. The recreation staff utilizes the SHINE® Memory Care framework for cognitive engagement, guiding a schedule that features yoga, group exercises, gardening, theatrical events, dancing, music programs, table games, and organized shopping trips. Financial access is supported through the integration of Veteran Affairs benefits alongside traditional payment options.

Prospective representatives evaluating regional care options should carefully review the property’s recent recurring citation patterns and corresponding remediation records before making a final placement decision. The 114-capacity campus serves older adults who require routine physical aid, behavioral supervision, or specialized memory support within a structured residential environment.

Overview of Family Extended Care of Sebring

Family Extended Care of Sebring is an 85-bed senior community managed by Best Care Senior Living LLC and operated as a non-profit by Central Tampa Consultant LLC. The property provides standard assisted living and specialized memory care, with daily programming that includes cooking classes, group exercise, games, crafts, and social outings. Staffed trilingually in English, Spanish, and Creole, the facility accommodates various payment structures, including private pay, insurance, Medicaid, workers’ compensation, and Veterans Affairs benefits.

Official oversight records documenting 35 separate inspections since July 2012 detail 32 total line-item infractions, averaging 2.9 citations annually. This frequency tracks slightly lower than the typical Florida facility baseline, and because 21 of those 35 state visits historically resulted in a minor operational mark, the property holds a low long-term zero citations-per-inspection rate for absolute perfection.

Regulatory files note past challenges involving building maintenance, resident documentation, medication management, and staff training protocols, with an enforcement history limited to a single $6,065 fine and zero severe administrative penalties. State logs from the most recent evaluation on September 15, 2025, show a single citation related to risk management and quality assurance procedures, which the team subsequently resolved following a series of entirely clean inspections earlier in 2024 and 2025.

Prospective representatives evaluating regional senior housing choices can look to these multi-year public health logs to evaluate the property’s management consistency. Since the public tracking base shows an overall low citation history and a minimal penalty record despite frequent regulatory visits, the data points to a highly compliant operating framework. Arranging an in-person walkthrough is an effective way to inspect the residential layout firsthand, view the common spaces, and discuss care coordination and financial assistance options with the staff.

Overview of Oakridge Assisted Living Facility

Oakridge Assisted Living Facility is a 52-bed, non-profit assisted living and memory care home. The property provides 24-hour staffing, daily living assistance, medication help, regular meals, housekeeping, laundry services, and local transportation coordination tailored to residents with varying cognitive needs.

Long-term oversight records covering a 12-year window detail 26 total deficiencies across 23 different state evaluations, an annual average of 1.1 citations that places the building 76% ahead of the standard Florida average. Out of those 23 visits, 22 historically turned up minor infractions, giving the facility a low long-term zero citations-per-inspection rate for perfect reviews.

Earlier files from 2012 to 2016 showed scattered issues involving medication assistance, nursing services, and training rules. However, the data reveals a substantial turnaround from 2016 onward, marked by a streak of 11 consecutive clear evaluations. Aside from a brief two-citation report in early 2020 regarding health assessments and medication help, the building has maintained consistent compliance, culminating in a completely clear review during the most recent June 2024 inspection. The state has never issued financial fines or severe enforcement actions against the provider.

Older adults reviewing local care options can look to this long-term trend of minimal violations as a strong sign of administrative consistency. Because the data shows that older problems with admissions paperwork and medication routines were successfully resolved over a multi-year period, the current records point to a stable operational environment. Planning a personal tour remains a helpful step to look over the common areas and speak with the management team about how they maintain their high compliance standards on a daily basis.

Overview of The Pointe at Boca Raton

Located in Boca Del Mar within Palm Beach County, The Pointe at Boca Raton operates 75 assisted living and independent living units for Medicare and Medicaid residents. The facility, administered by Pauline Jackson Lawson and part of Sinceri Senior Living’s 37-facility national network, provides respite care and rehabilitation services alongside 24-hour staffing that includes multilingual staff conversant in English, Spanish, and Creole.

Residents choose from studio and one- to two-bedroom apartments and participate in structured activities: exercise classes, music programs, gardening, theater, and social outings, along with on-site amenities including a library, spa, and patio. Transportation and housekeeping services are included.

A significant compliance challenge emerged in July 2025. During a routine state inspection, the facility was cited for six Class 3 deficiencies; meaning moderate potential-for-harm violations. These involved admissions procedures, resident care delivery, staffing adequacy, and staff training. The documented deficiencies suggest system-level gaps rather than isolated incidents, though the specific nature of each violation is not publicly detailed.

The facility responded: a follow-up routine inspection in September 2025 documented zero deficiencies, indicating corrective action was completed within weeks.

Over the longer twelve-year record from 2014 through September 2025, the picture is substantially different. Across 11 total inspections, the facility accrued only 13 deficiencies; 1.1 per year, a rate 76% below the Florida assisted living average of 4.6 annually.

Ten of the 11 inspections resulted in citations; all violations cited have been corrected. The facility has incurred zero federal fines and holds an inspection composite score of 90/100 (A-), well above the Florida state benchmark of 77/100 (C+). Among 918 Florida assisted living facilities, The Pointe ranks 427th for regulatory compliance.

The facility sits 2.7 miles from downtown Boca Raton and 2.53 miles from Baptist Health Boca Raton Regional Hospital, though a walk score of 12 indicates resident car-dependence for most daily errands.

Recent July 2025 deficiencies signal current operational challenges in admissions, care delivery, staffing, and training; issues corrected within two months but reflecting vulnerabilities beneath the facility’s otherwise strong compliance history.

Overview of Convivial Jacaranda Trace

Convivial Jacaranda Trace is a 63-bed non-profit senior community operated by LifeStar Management. The campus offers standard assisted living, specialized memory care, rehabilitation services, and short-term respite stays across a mix of apartments and villa homes. On-site features include a heated swimming pool, a fitness center, a clubhouse, and multiple dining venues. Residents have access to daily structured programming, such as group fitness, gardening, crafts, music, and local social outings.

Public health summaries capturing 24 distinct regulatory checks between April 2013 and November 2024 catalog 28 total line-item infractions at the facility. This specific tally breaks down to a long-term annual average of 2.6 citations, outperforming the standard Florida baseline by roughly 43%. Because 11 of those 24 state visits historically resulted in at least one minor notation on initial paperwork, the home has a low long-term zero citations-per-inspection rate for absolute perfection on first reviews.

Older compliance logs point to scattered hurdles over the years involving personnel files, background screening updates, employee training protocols, and kitchen operations, which led to three small financial penalties totaling $1,500. The modern record highlights steady improvement, showing an entirely spotless evaluation with zero violations during the final standard review on November 21, 2024.

Interested individuals exploring regional retirement communities can utilize these multi-year state archives to gauge the property’s operational continuity. Since the public data outlines a low cumulative citation frequency and minor fine record alongside a completely clear inspection at the close of its tracking period, the documentation shows a stable administrative approach. Arranging a personal walkthrough is a practical next step to check out the villa and apartment floor plans, see the dining rooms, and talk with the staff about daily care coordination.

Overview of Crossings at Riverview The

Crossings at Riverview is a 115-bed senior living community that provides standard assisted living, memory care, and short-term respite stays. The property offers on-site dining, wellness programs, hospice coordination, and support groups, with daily activities ranging from yoga and group exercise to cooking, crafts, and theater outings. Care routines are supported by a bilingual staff fluent in English and Spanish.

Government oversight logs tracking 52 separate inspections between March 2015 and October 2025 detail 59 total line-item infractions over the property’s operational history. This volume stands about 79% higher than the standard Florida average, and because 46 of those 52 state visits uncovered a minor required fix on initial paperwork, the facility holds a low long-term zero citations-per-inspection rate for absolute perfection.

Historical files show recurring marks tied to building maintenance, resident documentation, care procedures, and emergency planning, which resulted in a cumulative fine history of $9,650. However, current records show a positive shift in operational oversight; the most recent review from October 13, 2025, came back entirely clear with zero deficiencies noted.

Interested individuals looking into regional long-term care options can review these public health summaries to evaluate the community’s modern performance. Since the state database shows that past maintenance and paperwork hurdles have given way to a flawless evaluation in late 2025, the data points to a highly responsive management approach. Arranging an in-person tour is an effective next step to check out the building’s actual condition, look over the common lounges, and talk with the team about care options.

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.

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

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 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.
