Frequently Asked Questions about Nursing Homes in Palm Beach County, FL

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Florida?

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?
