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.
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.
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.
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.
A named contact for the facility. Hover the name to see their role — Administrator (state administrator of record or facility-provided administrator), Nursing Director, Medical Director, or Staff. The most authoritative available is shown.
Housing or bed configuration options (e.g. studio, shared), often from facility-reported amenities and licensing details.
Better Business Bureau grade for the operating company. Reflects complaint handling and business practices, not clinical care quality.

Overview of Palm Beach Memory Care

Respite care and memory care fill out the care list at Palm Beach Memory Care in North Palm Beach, FL. The memory care is supervised, in a setting secured with wandering in mind.

That lets the community serve someone living with dementia either way, through ongoing supervised care or temporary support while a caregiver is away. There are 72 beds, with one-bed and two-bed options, and the two-bed option suits two people sharing, whether a couple or companions.

PBMC Opco LLC operates the community, with Katheleen Raymond as administrator. With the area car-dependent at 49 on Walk Score, residents who don’t drive rely on rides for errands. Pathways and Innovative Monitoring are the two programs the community names.

Overview of Senior Point Assisted Living

Senior Point Assisted Living offers assisted living, adult day care, and memory care in Tampa, FL. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and taking medication. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering, while adult day care offers support during daytime hours without requiring a change to the person’s usual living arrangement.

The community has 92 beds with private and semi-private housing. A private residence gives one resident their own living space, while a semi-private option means sharing that space with another resident. The combination of assisted living and memory care can suit a resident whose needs grow over time without leaving the community.

Senior Point is in the Northwest Tampa neighborhood, where a Walk Score of 73 places the area in the very walkable range. Most errands can be done on foot, so a resident who no longer drives may still reach nearby shops, a pharmacy, or cafes independently. Payment options include insurance and/or HMO, Medicaid, and Veterans Affairs (VA) benefits; Medicaid matters when a family’s savings may not cover a long stay, while VA benefits apply to an eligible veteran or surviving spouse.

Overview of Discovery Village at the Forum

Independent living, assisted living, and memory care are the three levels Discovery Village at the Forum offers in Fort Myers, FL. Its neighborhood is The Forum.

A resident whose needs grow can change levels here rather than change communities.

Short respite stays are also possible, and pets are allowed. Julia M. Torres is administrator on behalf of the operator Britton (Forum) LLC.
