“I love this place. Management does a wonderful job. The food is wonderful; I go down for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and it never gets boring. I play canasta and do the cooking classes, and it keeps me busy. They wash and iron my clothes every week, make all the beds and keep everything very clean. If something's wrong, they come and fix it. The caregivers are very nice and come quickly. It's a very nice place, the people are lovely, and I'd recommend it.”

“I'm just very, very pleased. I toured a few places and really liked this one; it's very classy and very elegant, and everybody seemed so friendly. I have no complaints about management. The food is excellent and tastes great, and the servers are very nice. They offer a tremendous variety of activities, and I've already circled the things I'm interested in. Housekeeping has been very good, and maintenance set up my television. I'd very likely recommend it.”
“I came from a terrible situation, so I'm thrilled. My mother was always in her room and never left, and now she's never in her room. She's eating well; now we're buying bigger pants. I visit three or four times a week, and it's always good. The care team isn't afraid to call me when they need help. The big difference is the people; the leaders in nursing, memory care, and sales have been around for years, and it's a high-quality, well-run team.”
“She chose this place because she lived here before and liked it, and the same leader who was here then is still here and very good. She usually goes to lunch and says the food is fabulous. There's a lot going on to keep people busy. Housekeeping pays attention; every time I'm here, they vacuum, empty the garbage, and pick up clothes, which is a big help. Maintenance set up the television, and the caregivers are great. I would recommend it.”
“It's great here, and I should never have left. It's a beautiful place, and the grounds are always kept up. The woman who runs it is on top of things and always around. Having seen other places, I know the food here is much better. The activities keep me busy all day long, maintenance helps when you need them, and the people here are lovely. It's worth it, and I most definitely recommend it, which I already have.”
“The management team is exceptional, always ensuring she feels comfortable and well taken care of. The activities calendar is impressive, with plenty of options, even though she prefers to stay in. The housekeeping is top-notch, and the maintenance staff is very helpful. Overall, the value for what we pay is fantastic. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a caring community.”

“We chose this community for my dad because of the attentiveness of the staff and the overall facility itself. During the choosing process, they were very caring, not high pressure and the billing office took time to explain the process. When you walk in, the food they are preparing always smells delicious, and he always has clean clothes and the place looks immaculate. You can tell the care staff really like their job. They are attentive to him and everything is good!”

“I would definitely recommend this community. Out of all the facilities that we looked at in our area I would recommend it hands down over any facility that we looked at. We really love it overall. The whole facility is really above and beyond any other facility that we have seen in our area. Everybody that we went through to get my mother-in-law in there were phenomonal. I feel that they went above and beyond everything they have to do to make us feel welcome there. The food was great. It was like eating at a restaurant. The activities are very good. They definitely do so much to keep them active all day and make them feel special and they take them on trips. I would say that she is having a great time. God bless people that works with patients with alzheimers because it is not an easy job but every time we go she is so happy. She has had her nails painted and her nurse is holding her hand and bringing her places and laughing with her. They are amazing. We couldn't have asked for a better place to look after her.”
“We chose this place for mom because the place was clean and we liked the whole initial visit. The value is fair compared toa lot of other places and the management is nice. The dining is really good and the servers are very sweet. They have a whole list of activities they do that is posted in the halls and there is a ton of variety. The housekeepers are nice and help mom out. The maintenance staff assisted us with move-in items and all of the gentlemen are nice. To be honest, we like the place very much and she feels safe and comfortable there.”
“My mom lives at the community and I recommend it to others. We're satisfied with the price, services and accommodations. Management staff is respectful, knowledgeable, accessible and responsive. She likes the food and they post the variety on a board. Activities are well planned and consistently offered. Her room always looks clean, laundry gets done regularly and they tell us when they need more supplies. Transportation is nice, flexible and easy to schedule. Overall, she feels safe, comfortable and the care staff is responsive.”

What these terms mean
Florida law (section 408.813, Florida Statutes) sorts violations into four classes, plus unclassified violations:
Class I: “Those conditions or occurrences related to the operation and maintenance of a provider or to the care of clients which the agency determines present an imminent danger to the clients of the provider or a substantial probability that death or serious physical or emotional harm would result therefrom.”
Class II: “Those conditions or occurrences related to the operation and maintenance of a provider or to the care of clients which the agency determines directly threaten the physical or emotional health, safety, or security of the clients, other than class I violations.”
Class III: “Those conditions or occurrences related to the operation and maintenance of a provider or to the care of clients which the agency determines indirectly or potentially threaten the physical or emotional health, safety, or security of clients, other than class I or class II violations.”
Class IV: “Those conditions or occurrences related to the operation and maintenance of a provider or to required reports, forms, or documents that do not have the potential of negatively affecting clients. These violations are of a type that the agency determines do not threaten the health, safety, or security of clients.”
Unclassified: A violation “that is not designated as a class I, class II, class III, or class IV violation.” Examples in the law: “Exceeding licensed capacity” and “Providing services beyond the scope of the license.”
Moratorium: “The licensee is prohibited from admitting new patients or residents due to an emergency action issued by the Agency.”

AHCA: “Before penalties for a deficiency are imposed, a licensee has the opportunity to contest Agency findings.”
