COTTAGES AT BELLEAIR — Assisted Living in Clearwater, Florida
Cottages at Belleair is a 98-bed assisted living facility in Clearwater, Florida. Its CareQED Score is 0 out of 100 (Serious concerns), based on Florida AHCA inspection findings. AHCA records include 2 serious (Class 1 or 2) violations. The record also includes 8 state sanctions or final orders, a formal enforcement signal. Care options include memory care. It accepts Medicaid and VA benefits. It has operated under Extended Care Portfolio Florida LLC for about 18 years.
Serious enforcement findings are present and drive the low score, and the facility has been subject to formal state sanctions. Inspections repeatedly cite resident care and medication problems along with staffing standards, food service, training, and extended congregate care; most prior citations have been corrected but a few significant items remain open, and the pattern of recurring deficiencies looks generally steady rather than clearly improving.
