Overview of Sweet Water of Orlando

Sweet Water of Orlando is a 92-bed assisted living facility at 8207 Forest City Road, Orlando, Orange County, Florida 32810, operated by Green Tree Assisted Living, LLC and administrated by Alisha Robinson. Licensed through December 25, 2027 (License #5578). Accepts Medicaid, Insurance/HMO, and Veteran Affairs benefits. For-profit. Walk Score: 32 (somewhat walkable). Distance from city center: 8.0 miles.

The facility offers assistance with activities of daily living including medication management, bathing, incontinence care, and daily support. Housing includes shared and private suites with some featuring private verandas and kitchenettes. Three meals daily with snacks, plus daily and weekly housekeeping and laundry. On-site lab work, x-rays, and ultrasounds available through partnerships. Activities include watercolor painting, movie nights, faith services, gardening, nature walks, exercise classes, music programs, and social events. Staff speak English and Spanish.

Regulatory compliance presents the primary placement concern. Over 13 years of inspections (June 2012 to August 2025), all 47 inspections with the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration documented deficiencies. Total 85 line-item deficiencies across the period. Last four years: 6.5 deficiencies annually, 41% worse than Florida average of 4.6 per year. Latest inspection (August 12, 2025, complaint-driven) cited 6 deficiencies: resident care supervision, resident rights and facility procedures, medication storage and disposal, staff training, background screening, and reporting requirements. Prior inspections from February 2024, November 2021, and July 2019 documented recurring deficiencies in the same areas: resident care supervision, medication management, staffing standards, training, background screening, and food service; indicating systemic and persistent compliance gaps. The facility reports correcting previously cited deficiencies, yet the pattern of repeated deficiency findings across multiple years and multiple inspection types suggests ongoing operational challenges. Total fines: $16,000 across the seven-year period.

Financial assistance programs available to Florida residents include Long-Term Care Waiver, Community Care for the Elderly, Home Care for the Elderly, Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly, and Optional State Supplementation. Income and asset limits vary.

Families considering Sweet Water of Orlando should request explanations of the recurring deficiency findings and ask about corrective action plans.
