Overview of Premier Assisted Living Facility, LLC

Premier Assisted Living Facility is a 100-bed, non-profit assisted living and memory care home. The building features round-the-clock staffing and comprehensive memory care services, with a layout built to accommodate residents who need different levels of daily support.

State records covering 10 years show a total of 36 deficiencies across 26 different inspections. This averages out to 2.8 citations a year, which tracks about 39% better than the Florida state average. Out of those 26 visits, 18 turned up issues, while eight came back completely clear, meaning the building has a historical zero citations-per-inspection rate for about a third of its reviews.

Throughout its history, the facility has run into repeated problems with medication assistance, building upkeep, and staff training. While the home showed a solid run of clear complaint reviews between 2020 and 2024, the numbers have slipped again recently, with a January 2023 review flagging three issues and the most recent June 2025 inspection citing seven deficiencies. The state has never fined the provider or taken any severe enforcement actions.

Prospective residents looking at this community will want to see how the team is managing this recent rise in citations. Since the latest mid-2025 report shows renewed gaps in staff training and medication routines, it makes sense to ask the director for an update on their current corrective actions. Planning a visit to walk through the building during afternoon hours will also let you check out the property’s upkeep firsthand and see how the staff handles daily care.
