Recently licensed in October 2024, the for-profit community serves older adults requiring daily assistance with activities of daily living. The staff speak English, Italian, and Spanish.
The facility accepts insurance, Medicaid, and VA benefits.
The regulatory record reflects recurring compliance issues. Over its 11-year inspection history, the facility underwent inspections that yielded 26 total citations, which is 21% below the state average and yet at 2.4 citations per inspection visit, the rate runs 85% above Florida norms. This disparity indicates deficiencies cluster densely in each inspection cycle.
Nine of 11 inspections documented citations; the most recent cycles in 2025 showed corrections followed by a clean inspection in May.
Two fines, totaling $1,000, were issued across the decade, which is good and substantially lower than the $11,600 state average, especially with no formal legal actions filed.
Recurring deficiency themes included records documentation, resident care and rights, staff training, medication management, and dietary standards.
The community offers a library, spa, dining room, garden, and patio. A Mental Health & Wellness Initiative centers on music-based programming, counseling, and support groups. Daily activities feature arts and crafts, exercise classes, card games, gardening, and theater screenings.
The facility’s location scores 9 on the walkability index; most daily errands require a car, though shopping and healthcare services sit within six miles.
Rosie’s House is set up for residents who are comfortable with close inspection scrutiny and the documented pattern of deficiency-correction cycles.

Frequently Asked Questions about Nursing Homes in Florida
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 nursing home care?
Yes — Florida Medicaid covers nursing home care for residents who meet income, asset, and medical-need eligibility requirements. Most CMS-certified nursing homes accept Medicaid as a primary payer once long-term-care eligibility is established.
What is nursing home care?
Nursing homes (also called skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses, rehabilitation services, and long-term custodial care for residents with significant health or functional needs.
How many nursing homes are listed on this page?
This page features 267 nursing homes in Florida. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.
How do I choose the right nursing home 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 nursing homes 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.
