Westminster Winter Park

1111 S Lakemont Ave, Winter Park, FL 32792
Overview of Westminster Winter Park

Westminster Winter Park operates 73 licensed nursing beds at 1111 South Lakemont Avenue in Winter Park, Orange County, Florida. The community functions as part of Presbyterian Retirement Communities, Inc., a nonprofit, church-operated continuing care retirement community administered by Dayana Medjine Desir. Of its current 72 residents, 29% hold Medicare coverage (typically short-stay rehabilitation), 47% receive Medicaid funding, and 24% pay privately. Occupancy remains robust at 96%, substantially exceeding Florida’s 84.3% average and reflecting strong local demand.

The facility earned an F inspection score of 59 out of 100; 29 points below Florida’s C+ state median of 77. It also ranked in the worst performing tier for citation history. Over thirteen years, Westminster accumulated 75 citations, running 127% above Florida’s typical facility average.

The most recent January 2025 inspection documented seven deficiencies involving licensure, resident supervision, medication handling, staffing compliance, and records management. Earlier cycles spanning 2013 through 2024 repeatedly flagged training documentation failures, particularly in staff in-service, medication assistance, CPR, and advanced dementia care. Residential supervision and elopement prevention violations appeared across at least five separate inspections. Two critical and two serious citations emerged in that five-year window, representing significant patient safety concerns.

The facility incurred four fines within three years, culminating in a $66,000 federal penalty in June 2024. No Medicare payment denials occurred, limiting the most severe enforcement action.

Registered nurses deliver 1 hour 3 minutes daily per resident; 43% above Florida’s state standard. Weekend RN presence is 66% above average. Total daily nursing care reaches 4 hours 11 minutes per resident. Yet persistent inspection findings of inadequate training, supervision failures, and documentation gaps across multiple years suggest staffing quantity has not translated to consistent quality or compliance oversight.

Residents demonstrate exceptional falls prevention (1.4%, substantially better than state average) and low antipsychotic use (3.6%, 55% better than state norm). Short-stay residents achieve 68% functional independence at discharge, 27% above state expectations. However, 32.3% of short-stay discharges result in hospital readmission; that’s 23% worse than Florida’s baseline.

Westminster Winter Park is a community serving primarily short-term rehabilitation residents within a high-occupancy model, though it’s one with a pattern of documented deficiencies across staffing, supervision, and training domains.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care 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.

Does Florida Medicaid cover memory care?

Florida Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, 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 memory care?

Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, with secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and routines built to reduce confusion and wandering.

How many memory care communities are listed on this page?

This page features 765 memory care communities in Florida. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right memory care community 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 memory care communities 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.
