Overview of Palmetto Subacute Care Center

Palmetto Subacute Care Center is at 7600 SW 8th St in Miami, on a stretch of SW 8th that scores an 84 for walkability; most errands reachable on foot, which is a meaningful logistical fact for families managing regular visits. The name says what this place is: subacute, not residential. The average length of stay is 112 days, and the clinical program roster confirms a facility built to handle medically complex patients who aren’t going home quickly.

The scope here is unusually broad. Daily physical, occupational, and speech therapy are standard; what distinguishes Palmetto is the depth beyond that: respiratory care, IV therapy, wound care, diabetic management, pain management, bariatric services, complex medical care, and subacute post-operative care. The facility also carries Alzheimer’s and memory care, an ICF/MRDD unit, hospice and palliative care, restorative care, and outpatient therapy, with on-site dental, podiatry, and optometry services rounding out the clinical picture.

Admissions are available 24/7. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are all accepted.

Nursing coverage totals 3 hours and 28 minutes per resident per day; 1 hour and 23 minutes of RN time, 2 hours and 18 minutes of nurse aide coverage, and 13 minutes of LPN/LVN time. Meals are prepared daily by an in-house chef working alongside a staff dietitian. For a family in Miami facing a complex post-hospital discharge with clinical needs that go beyond standard rehabilitation, Palmetto’s program breadth and all-payer acceptance make it one of the more substantive options the market offers at this acuity level.

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.
