CITRUS GARDEN ALF — Assisted Living in Winter Springs, Florida
Citrus Garden Alf is a 16-bed assisted living facility in Winter Springs, Florida. Its CareQED Score is 41 out of 100 (Serious concerns), based on Florida AHCA inspection findings. AHCA records include 1 serious (Class 1 or 2) violation. The record also includes 3 state sanctions or final orders, a formal enforcement signal. It accepts Medicaid and VA benefits. It has operated under Calflo Services, INC. for about 19 years.
Serious (Class 1 or 2) findings are present and weigh heavily, and the facility has also faced state sanctions that contribute to the lower score. Repeated concerns have centered on resident care, records, and admissions; while past deficiency citations have been corrected and recent inspections show fewer open items, the recurrence of issues in those care areas and several substantiated complaints make the picture one of some improvement but ongoing, steady vulnerability.
