Mostly short-term rehab stays
Most residents typically stay for a few weeks or months before returning home or moving on.
Most new residents arrive under Medicare (51% of admissions), and a typical Medicare stay runs around 26 days.
The Preserve in Fort Myers is a 38-bed nursing home housed in a three-story building on Hope Center Loop in Fort Myers, Florida. Run by administrator William Boyd and operated by Voa Lee County Health Care Facility, Inc., the building runs at roughly 88 percent occupancy. Stays here average just 41 days, which shows the staff concentrates heavily on short-term post-hospital rehab and recovery. To handle billing, the business office takes traditional Medicare, state Medicaid, and private funds.
Visitors will need a vehicle for almost all errands, as the surrounding neighborhood is car-dependent with a walk score of 17 out of 100. Indoors, residents receive an average of 4 hours and 47 minutes of direct nursing attention every day from a 24-hour team of RNs, LPNs, and aides. This floor crew provides regular speech, physical, and occupational therapy alongside a secure memory care program for residents with dementia. Daily life includes one-bedroom units, chef-prepared meals, weekly housekeeping, local transport, and a secure outdoor courtyard.
While older reports noted issues with elopement prevention and staffing protocols, the management team resolved those concerns, and the most recent inspection cleared the building with zero deficiencies.
Prospective residents can get in touch with the front desk to see if there are any current vacancies, ask about the short-term rehab schedules, or book an afternoon to see the campus firsthand.
The Preserve is legally operated by Voa Lee County Health Care Facility, Inc., and administered by William Boyd.
