Masonic Home of Florida

Overview of Masonic Home of Florida

Masonic Home of Florida is a 102-bed, non-profit assisted living and memory care facility. The community provides 24-hour staffing alongside specialized cognitive programming and rehabilitation services tailored to meet the needs of residents requiring post-acute recovery or memory care support.

Records compiled over a 12-year window detail 23 total deficiencies across 21 separate state evaluations. This tracks out to an annual average of 0.7 citations, which performs 85% better than the standard Florida average, dropping to 93% better than the baseline over the last eight years. Because all 21 inspections historically turned up minor infractions, the property has a low long-term zero citations-per-inspection rate for perfect reviews. Earlier documents note low-level paperwork issues, with a peak cluster of six deficiencies flagged in May 2016 involving resident contracts, record-keeping, and medication administration.

Following that period, the home established a substantial compliance turnaround, logging 15 consecutive flawless reviews across all inspection types between June 2017 and the most recent routine check in August 2024. The provider has never faced any state fines or administrative enforcement penalties.

Interested individuals researching care placement can look to this extensive history as a strong indicator of administrative stability and thorough regulatory adherence. Since the public data confirms a multi-year run of completely clean inspections across several types of reviews, the records show a well-maintained and structured management framework. To assist in your evaluation, scheduling an on-site visit is a practical way to check out the rehabilitation areas firsthand and talk with the team about how they organize their daily memory care routines.
