Rosie’s House

Overview of Rosie’s House

Rosie’s House is a 5-bed assisted living facility at 2073 SE Rainier Rd in Port St. Lucie, St. Lucie County, Florida, operated by The Cornerstones Of Port Saint Lucie Inc under the administration of Rina Aikens. Recently licensed in October 2024, the for-profit community serves older adults requiring daily assistance with activities of daily living. The staff speak English, Italian, and Spanish.

The facility accepts insurance, Medicaid, and VA benefits.

The regulatory record reflects recurring compliance issues. Over its 11-year inspection history, the facility underwent inspections that yielded 26 total citations, which is 21% below the state average and yet at 2.4 citations per inspection visit, the rate runs 85% above Florida norms. This disparity indicates deficiencies cluster densely in each inspection cycle.

Nine of 11 inspections documented citations; the most recent cycles in 2025 showed corrections followed by a clean inspection in May.

Two fines, totaling $1,000, were issued across the decade, which is good and substantially lower than the $11,600 state average, especially with no formal legal actions filed.

Recurring deficiency themes included records documentation, resident care and rights, staff training, medication management, and dietary standards.

The community offers a library, spa, dining room, garden, and patio. A Mental Health & Wellness Initiative centers on music-based programming, counseling, and support groups. Daily activities feature arts and crafts, exercise classes, card games, gardening, and theater screenings.

The facility’s location scores 9 on the walkability index; most daily errands require a car, though shopping and healthcare services sit within six miles.

Rosie’s House is set up for residents who are comfortable with close inspection scrutiny and the documented pattern of deficiency-correction cycles.

The intimate five-bed model suits those prioritizing activity programming and wellness focus within a smaller-scale environment.
