Overview of The Solaire at Las Palmas Village
Operating as a 180-bed nursing home and independent living community under nonprofit East Ridge Retirement Village, Inc., The Solaire at Las Palmas Village occupies a highly walkable location in Hialeah; 5300 West 16th Avenue, Miami-Dade County, Florida. With a Walk Score of 88, most errands are achievable on foot, a significant advantage for a senior residential facility. The community is CMS-certified for Medicare and Medicaid, serving residents age 55 and older as part of a broader continuing care retirement community structure. The address places the facility 4.3 miles from Hialeah’s city center.
CMS ratings show broad strength: overall rating ranks 57.5% above average, health inspection 42.3% above, and quality measures 23.2% above average.
Staffing represents the exception, rating 11.3% below Florida average. The facility delivers 4 hours 24 minutes of nursing care daily/resident (ranked 60th of 252 Florida SNFs), marginally better than the average, with weekend staffing maintaining 13% above baseline. A staff-to-resident ratio of 1.84 to 1 demonstrates 25% better coverage than typical Florida homes. The nursing roster includes 29 registered nurses, 19 licensed practical nurses, and 55 certified nursing assistants, supplemented by respiratory therapy technicians, clinical nurse specialists, and mental health workers.
Regulatory compliance shows one federal penalty: a $9,000 civil money penalty assessed in January 2025. This fine ranks among the lowest statewide; 88% below the Florida average. Zero payment denials and zero license suspensions are documented.
Current resident census stands at 74 across 180 licensed beds, yielding 80.9% occupancy, slightly below the average. The population skews private-pay (62.2% of current residents; 69% of new admissions), with meaningful Medicaid presence (27% current; 1% new admissions) and minimal Medicare (10.8% current; 30% new admissions).
Medicare residents average 25 days (short-term rehab), private-pay 4–5 months, and Medicaid 2 years. The overall census average stay is 47 days.
Functional decline scores 24% better than baseline; incontinence rates 43% better; pressure ulcers 33% better; UTI rates zero (100% better than state); depression rates zero (100% better). Falls with major injury represent a weak point, running 117% worse than average.
Housing includes one- and two-bedroom apartments (504–672 sq ft) within a 3-story structure. Pets are permitted. Amenities encompass fitness center, library, salon, dining, housekeeping, parking, and scenic courtyards. Resident and family councils facilitate governance input.
The Solaire serves mixed-length-stay patients, with particular strength in private-pay independent and assisted living alongside shorter Medicare rehabilitation and longer Medicaid custodial care, positioned in a walkable urban neighborhood with above-average clinical outcomes and nonprofit governance.
Quality ratings
The Overall CMS Rating combines results from health inspections, staffing levels and quality measures. Health inspections carry the most weight. Staffing and quality scores can increase or decrease the final rating based on performance compared to state and national standards.
Based on the results of the facility's three most recent standard inspections and any complaint investigations. CMS reviews the number, scope, and severity of deficiencies, with more recent findings weighted more heavily.
Measures average nursing staff hours per resident per day, including Registered Nurses (RNs) and total nursing staff. Ratings are adjusted based on the level of care residents require and are compared to state and national benchmarks.
Based on clinical and physical health indicators reported to CMS, such as hospital readmissions, falls, pressure ulcers, and improvements in mobility. These measures reflect how well residents' health needs are being managed.
