Meridian at Westwood occupies 150 beds in Fort Walton Beach, Florida, at 1001 Mar Walt Dr. It’s structured as a nursing home, assisted living, and independent living under Pacifica Walton Beach LLC (managed by Walton Beach Mgr LLC, administered by Janet Mashburn). It operates under a for-profit model with private units. Walk Score 34 means most errands require a car.
Average resident stay runs 41 days, so it’s a short-term facility. Occupancy sits at 80.6%, slightly below the Florida average of 84.3%.
Staffing includes respite care and 24-hour coverage. Total nursing hours are 4 hours 32 minutes per resident daily. Weekend nursing aide hours run 3 hours 40 minutes (5% above the Florida average).
The facility accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay. Amenities list the expected: library, games room, coffee bar, sitting areas, outdoor spaces, exercise classes, arts and crafts. Daily activities feature local outings, exercise classes, and social hours. Chef-prepared meals in an elegant dining room.
Over 10 years, 26 total citations against a Florida average of 33. That’s 21% below the state average. Citations per inspection: 0.9 versus Florida’s 1.3; ranked 64th of 919 Florida homes. Only 1 fine issued over a decade ($5,500) versus the Florida average of 5 fines totaling $11,624.
Historical inspections (2018-2021) documented Class 3 deficiencies in medication storage, resident care supervision, and physical plant safety. Then, October 2022 brought citations for staff training and dietary standards. But those training and dietary issues didn’t repeat. The inspection in June 2025 found no deficiencies and no complaints.
This is a facility that had documented care coordination gaps, identified them, corrected them, and sustained the corrections. The 41-day average length of stay and current clean inspection status suggest operational stability for short-term rehab or transition care. The trajectory from historical deficiencies to current compliance demonstrates competent operational management.

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 1049 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.
