Overview of The Solaire at Las Palmas Village

Operating as a 180-bed nursing home and independent living community under nonprofit East Ridge Retirement Village, Inc., The Solaire at Las Palmas Village occupies a highly walkable location in Hialeah; 5300 West 16th Avenue, Miami-Dade County, Florida. With a Walk Score of 88, most errands are achievable on foot, a significant advantage for a senior residential facility. The community is CMS-certified for Medicare and Medicaid, serving residents age 55 and older as part of a broader continuing care retirement community structure. The address places the facility 4.3 miles from Hialeah’s city center.

CMS ratings show broad strength: overall rating ranks 57.5% above average, health inspection 42.3% above, and quality measures 23.2% above average.

Staffing represents the exception, rating 11.3% below Florida average. The facility delivers 4 hours 24 minutes of nursing care daily/resident (ranked 60th of 252 Florida SNFs), marginally better than the average, with weekend staffing maintaining 13% above baseline. A staff-to-resident ratio of 1.84 to 1 demonstrates 25% better coverage than typical Florida homes. The nursing roster includes 29 registered nurses, 19 licensed practical nurses, and 55 certified nursing assistants, supplemented by respiratory therapy technicians, clinical nurse specialists, and mental health workers.

Regulatory compliance shows one federal penalty: a $9,000 civil money penalty assessed in January 2025. This fine ranks among the lowest statewide; 88% below the Florida average. Zero payment denials and zero license suspensions are documented.

Current resident census stands at 74 across 180 licensed beds, yielding 80.9% occupancy, slightly below the average. The population skews private-pay (62.2% of current residents; 69% of new admissions), with meaningful Medicaid presence (27% current; 1% new admissions) and minimal Medicare (10.8% current; 30% new admissions).
