Morselife Memory Care Residence is a 218-bed, non-profit community specializing in dementia care. The facility operates at an 84.3% occupancy level and integrates rehabilitation services, Parkinson’s therapy, palliative care, and specialized treatment options. Clinical operations are supported by nurse staffing that averages 4 hours and 35 minutes per resident each day.
Health department data tracked over a 10-year period show a total of 22 deficiencies across 23 separate inspections. This averages out to 2.2 citations a year, which tracks 52% better than the standard Florida average, dropping to 67% better than the state average over the last four years. Out of those 23 state visits, 22 historically noted minor infractions, resulting in a low long-term zero citations-per-inspection rate for entirely clear reviews.
Compliance records show past scattered issues with administrative paperwork, medication files, and staff training. Following a single citation for resident supervision during a 2023 complaint check, the home returned to full compliance, with its most recent routine evaluation from September 2025 recording zero deficiencies. The provider has never faced state fines or administrative enforcement penalties.
Prospective residents evaluating comprehensive care options can see from this decade of documentation a pattern of steady regulatory performance that beats state averages. Because the files indicate that minor medication or paperwork gaps have been systematically addressed, the data points to a consistently supervised environment. Planning an on-site visit is still a practical step to see how the nurses manage daily clinical routines and to look over the specialized therapy spaces firsthand.
Park of the Palms is a 40-bed, non-profit assisted living and memory care home. The broader campus features independent living units, an RV park, guest lodging, an events center, and 24-hour staffing. Specialized cognitive support is managed through the property’s Gilbert Lodge memory care program, which is structured to handle various stages of dementia.
Health department documentation spanning 13 years logs 21 total deficiencies across 21 separate visits, which averages out to 1.6 citations per year. Because every single inspection historically turned up at least one minor issue, the facility has a long-term history of missing a zero citations-per-inspection rate for perfect reviews.
Earlier evaluations primarily flagged repetitive problems with administrative paperwork and resident care rights. However, the data highlights a major upward trend over the last five years, with the home averaging just 0.8 deficiencies annually, a rate 83% better than the Florida baseline. Spotless reviews were recorded in 2019 and 2023, and the most recent routine evaluation from May 2025 also came back completely clear. The state has never issued any financial fines or severe enforcement actions against the provider.
Interested individuals looking over regional care options can take reassurance from the community’s strong regulatory performance in recent years. Since the older files show past difficulties with resident documentation and record-keeping that have since been resolved, the current data reflects a well-organized and stable management team. It is still a good idea to schedule an on-site visit to inspect the campus layout yourself and speak with the admissions team about how they coordinate family guest stays and memory care routines.
Oak Hill Assisted Living is a 67-bed community that provides assisted living, memory care, and rehabilitation services. The facility features round-the-clock awake staff, daily licensed nurse supervision, regular housekeeping, laundry services, and structured activities aimed at supporting resident wellness.
Public compliance files covering the facility’s three-and-a-half-year history document exceptional regulatory results, with just one total deficiency across nine separate state visits. This minimal volume averages out to 0.3 citations a year, placing the property 93% ahead of the standard Florida average. Out of these nine evaluations, eight came back entirely clear, giving the building a very high zero citations-per-inspection rate for clean reviews.
The initial opening inspection in March 2021 was completely spotless, and a single infraction regarding staffing standards during a September 2023 routine check represents the only mark on record. Seven other complaint evaluations conducted between 2022 and 2024 turned up no violations at all, including the most recent check from August 2024. The provider has never faced financial fines or state enforcement penalties.
Interested individuals scanning local senior care options can view this brief but highly consistent record as a strong indicator of reliable management. Because the state files show that the team successfully resolved its single minor staffing citation while keeping all other evaluations flawless, the current data points to a well-run environment. Dropping by for a personal walkthrough remains an excellent way to see the daily routines firsthand, inspect the therapy rooms, and talk with the nursing supervisors about how they maintain their care standards.
Hunt Trace of Clermont is a 140-bed, non-profit community offering assisted living, memory care, and rehabilitation services. Base pricing begins at $3,550 per month, covering 24-hour staffing, short-term respite stays, restaurant-style dining, a beauty salon, housekeeping, and scheduled transportation.
State regulatory summaries spanning a 12-year window record 30 total deficiencies across 27 separate inspections. This averages out to 0.8 citations per year, a rate that tracks 83% better than the typical Florida baseline. Because 26 of those 27 evaluations turned up at least one minor infraction on the initial reports, the property holds a low historical zero citations-per-inspection rate for absolute perfection.
The community maintained a long stretch of high compliance between 2018 and 2024, logging 16 consecutive clear reviews across routine, monitoring, and complaint visits. While a February 2025 complaint check also came back entirely clean, the most recent routine inspection from June 2025 flagged three deficiencies involving staffing standards, emergency environmental controls, and medication self-administration. No financial fines or administrative enforcement penalties have ever been issued against the provider.
Families scanning local senior housing profiles can look to this multi-year history as a solid benchmark of long-term operational stability. Since the mid-2025 file details a few recent adjustments regarding emergency backups and medication assistance, talking with the administration about how they have resolved these specific points is a useful precaution. Planning a physical walkthrough is likewise a great way to view the rehab spaces firsthand and check out the overall condition of the campus.
Moorings Park Oakstone at Grey Oaks is a 50-bed, non-profit community that provides assisted living, memory care, and rehabilitation services. The facility features round-the-clock staffing, short-term respite care, outpatient therapy, and integrated home health options, with daily clinical care supported by an average of 5 hours and 37 minutes of nursing time per resident.
Public compliance data covering an eight-year operational history show 11 total deficiencies across 14 separate state inspections. This frequency averages out to 0.5 citations per year, which tracks 89% better than the typical Florida state benchmark. Out of these 14 visits, 13 historically turned up at least one minor infraction, giving the property a low long-term zero citations-per-inspection rate for flawless reviews. The home maintained a long stretch of clear evaluations during its first few years of operation, including multiple spotless reviews between 2017 and 2021.
Recent monitoring reports show minor, isolated marks; a June 2024 routine check noted one staffing standards issue, and the most recent complaint investigation from July 2025 cited a single deficiency regarding resident elopement standards. State regulators have never issued any financial fines or administrative enforcement actions against the provider.
Older adults exploring local residential care options can view this extensive timeline as a strong indicator of low regulatory risk and stable management. Because the recent 2025 records flag an isolated issue with elopement safety protocols, asking the administrator to detail their current resident monitoring and security systems is a prudent step. Scheduling a personal tour is also a great way to view the therapy areas firsthand and watch how the staff coordinates daily clinical routines.
Life and Love Alf II is a 38-bed, non-profit assisted living and memory care facility. The home provides round-the-clock staffing, short-term respite care, and specialized cognitive programming that includes behavioral support, personal hygiene assistance, regular meal preparation, and family educational resources.
Health department oversight archives spanning a 12-year window log 15 total deficiencies across 16 separate visits. This frequency breaks down to 0.9 citations annually, tracking 78% better than the standard Florida baseline. On a historical scale, 15 of these 16 reviews turned up a minor infraction, giving the community a low zero citations-per-inspection rate for flawless reviews.
While the long-term record reveals minor, sporadic files, such as an early citation involving social activities, the data shows notable compliance stability recently. Both a routine review and a complaint check in 2024 came back completely clear, culminating in a spotless report during the most recent October 2024 evaluation. The state has never issued financial fines or severe administrative penalties against the property.
Prospective representatives researching senior care placement can view this multi-year history as a sign of well-established management practices. Because the public records demonstrate that old administrative or activity issues have been resolved, the recent data points to a highly consistent operating environment. Setting up a personal tour during the week is a helpful way to look over the common rooms, observe the daily activity schedule, and talk with the team about how they organize their memory care services.
Oak Hammock at the University of Florida is an 80-bed, non-profit senior community offering assisted living, memory care, and short-term rehabilitation. The campus provides wellness programming, special interest groups, and university-affiliated learning opportunities designed to support personal and educational engagement for residents.
State records compiled over a 10-year period show a total of 15 deficiencies across 17 separate evaluations. This tracks out to 1.5 citations per year, which is 68% better than the Florida state baseline. Because 16 of the 17 visits turned up at least one minor infraction, the property has a low historical zero citations-per-inspection rate for completely flawless reviews. Most past citations involved physical plant upkeep, administrative paperwork, or emergency planning, and the facility has systematically resolved these issues under a “Deficiencies Corrected” status.
The latest inspection from January 2025 flagged minor infractions that currently have corrective actions underway. Over its operational history, the community has never faced severe enforcement actions and has been penalized a total of $1,750 in state fines.
Families evaluating regional elder care options can view this long-term dataset as evidence of consistent, average-beating compliance. Since the early 2025 report indicates that a few routine building or administrative fixes are currently being resolved by the team, asking the admissions director for an update on these specific corrections is a helpful step. Planning a walkthrough of the campus will also allow you to examine the rehabilitation facilities firsthand and see how the community structures its daily educational activities.
Masonic Home of Florida is a 102-bed, non-profit assisted living and memory care facility. The community provides 24-hour staffing alongside specialized cognitive programming and rehabilitation services tailored to meet the needs of residents requiring post-acute recovery or memory care support.
Records compiled over a 12-year window detail 23 total deficiencies across 21 separate state evaluations. This tracks out to an annual average of 0.7 citations, which performs 85% better than the standard Florida average, dropping to 93% better than the baseline over the last eight years. Because all 21 inspections historically turned up minor infractions, the property has a low long-term zero citations-per-inspection rate for perfect reviews. Earlier documents note low-level paperwork issues, with a peak cluster of six deficiencies flagged in May 2016 involving resident contracts, record-keeping, and medication administration.
Following that period, the home established a substantial compliance turnaround, logging 15 consecutive flawless reviews across all inspection types between June 2017 and the most recent routine check in August 2024. The provider has never faced any state fines or administrative enforcement penalties.
Interested individuals researching care placement can look to this extensive history as a strong indicator of administrative stability and thorough regulatory adherence. Since the public data confirms a multi-year run of completely clean inspections across several types of reviews, the records show a well-maintained and structured management framework. To assist in your evaluation, scheduling an on-site visit is a practical way to check out the rehabilitation areas firsthand and talk with the team about how they organize their daily memory care routines.
Lisbet at Wellington Bay is a 150-bed community providing assisted living, memory care, and rehabilitation services. Rates begin at $3,700 per month, and the campus features 24-hour staffing, short-term respite stays, indoor and outdoor pools, fitness facilities, sports courts, walking paths, and an art studio.
State regulatory files covering the property’s two-and-a-half-year operating history document a single total deficiency across three separate visits. This minimal volume tracks out to an annual average of 0.3 citations, performing 93% better than the standard Florida average. Two of the three inspections came back entirely clear, resulting in a high zero citations-per-inspection rate for clean reviews.
Both the initial April 2023 opening inspection and an October 2024 complaint check were completely spotless, while the sole infraction on record was flagged during an August 2025 monitoring check regarding staffing standards. No financial fines or state administrative actions have ever been levied against the provider.
Older adults investigating regional senior housing options can look to this initial regulatory record as an indicator of consistent administrative oversight. Because the public records indicate that the home has maintained near-perfect scores since its launch, the data points to an organized operating framework. Scheduling a personal walkthrough is still a great way to inspect the expansive recreational amenities firsthand, observe the layout of the memory care wing, and discuss current staffing routines with the management team.
Magnolia Alf is a 71-bed, non-profit community that provides assisted living, memory care, rehabilitation services, and short-term respite stays. The facility offers round-the-clock staffing, personal care, a garden courtyard, and integrated wellness and activity programming designed to meet diverse resident needs.
Data covering the facility’s 18-month operating history since its June 2024 opening document 12 total deficiencies across four separate inspections, an annual average of 6.0 citations that tracks 30% worse than the standard Florida state average. Every review conducted on-site has turned up at least one minor infraction, resulting in a historical zero citations-per-inspection rate for entirely clean reports.
While the initial launch review in mid-2024 noted just one physical plant safety issue, the facility faced a significant escalation during concurrent checks in October 2025; a routine inspection cited eight deficiencies involving staffing standards, financial stability reports, background checks, and dementia training, while a matching complaint visit flagged three issues with resident supervision, building safety, and records. These documented corrections currently remain pending, and no financial fines or state enforcement penalties have been issued against the provider to date.
Families investigating senior living options should carefully consider this initial track record when examining the community. Because the state files show a recent cluster of citations across staffing, supervision, and building maintenance that are still being resolved, asking the administration for a direct update on their current corrective actions is an essential precaution. Planning a physical walkthrough of the property also allows you to check out the layout yourself and see how the team manages daily care routines.

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.
