City and state of the facility. Used for mapping and state-average comparisons.
Licensed bed capacity (maximum allowed). Not the same as how many beds are currently filled.
Indicates whether residents are allowed to have pets in the facility.
Third-party neighborhood walkability score (0–100). Convenience/context metric, not a healthcare quality measure.
Name of the licensed owner, operator, or managing entity as filed with the state. Useful for grouping facilities under the same organization.
A 0–100 score of a facility's regulatory inspection record, shown as a letter and compared with other facilities of the same kind in the same state. This is a proprietary Assisted Living Magazine grade. It is not a government rating. A dash means we have no inspection data for that facility.
Count of regulatory inspections in the reporting window. Higher volume can reflect more oversight visits, complaint-driven surveys, or routine licensure cycles.
Share of inspections that resulted in citations, expressed as a percentage of total inspections in the window.
Total count of citations (cited regulatory issues) recorded in the selected reporting period. Read alongside inspection counts for context.
The average number of citations this facility receives each time it's inspected, calculated as total citations ÷ total inspections. A lower number suggests more consistent compliance with safety and care standards.
Reported profit orientation for the operator or facility (e.g. for-profit vs nonprofit), as provided in state licensing or disclosure data.
Total monetary fines or penalties in the reporting window from the state source. A single large fine can dominate this figure.

Overview of Tapestry Senior Living Lakeshore

Tapestry Senior Living Lakeshore sits at 2516 W. Lakeshore Dr in Tallahassee, about 3 miles out from downtown. The walk score here lands at 45 out of 100, which means it’s somewhat walkable. You could probably grab a few things on foot, but for most errands, you’re going to want a car or the community’s transportation help.

The building has 160 beds split between studio and one-bedroom units, running from 340 up to 495 square feet. This is both an assisted living and memory care community, so there’s support for residents who need a higher level of daily care alongside those with memory-related needs. Licensed nurses and CNAs are on staff around the clock, and respite care is available too, which is handy for families who just need short-term coverage. Staff speak English and Spanish, so language barriers shouldn’t get in the way of good communication with residents and their families.

There’s a real activity lineup here; residents can take cooking classes, join dance sessions, hit exercise classes, sit down for cards or games, get their hands dirty in the garden, or catch a movie night. Music programs, yoga, shopping trips, and group outings round things out. Pets are welcome too, which matters more than people sometimes expect when someone’s leaving behind a longtime companion to move into a new place.

On the financial side, Tapestry accepts Medicaid, which opens the door for a lot of families who couldn’t otherwise afford this level of care. State inspectors who review this kind of community typically look at things like medication management, staff training and credentials, environmental safety, and how well resident rights get protected day to day. Those are the standard categories regulators check across every assisted living facility in Florida, not anything unique to this one.

Put it all together and you get a community built around two things at once: structured, round-the-clock care for residents who need it, and a packed activity schedule for people who still want full days. That combination, plus Medicaid acceptance, makes Tapestry a realistic option for a wider range of families than a lot of private-pay-only communities can serve.

Overview of Watercrest Spanish Springs

Watercrest Spanish Springs offers assisted living, memory care, and respite care in Lady Lake, FL. Assisted living provides help with daily tasks, memory care offers a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering, and respite care provides a short stay for a family whose usual caregiver needs to travel or recover.

Having these care levels in one community can allow a resident whose needs grow to move to a different level of support without leaving the community. The community has 100 beds and offers suite accommodations, giving residents a suite-style living arrangement rather than a single standard room.

Starting prices are $5,595 for assisted living and $6,595 for memory care, so families can compare the entry price for each care level. Pets are allowed, which means a resident may bring a pet when moving to the community.

Chef-prepared meals and restaurant-style dining give residents an on-site dining setting, while salon services provide grooming appointments within the community. Verandas and outdoor living spaces give residents places to spend time outside, and transportation is available for residents who need rides. The community is administered by Shana Gresh and operated by PX SHS Spanish Springs Operator; it is in the Spanish Springs neighborhood. A Walk Score of 38 places the area in a car-dependent setting, so most errands require a car or a ride.
