DISCOVERY VILLAGE AT DEERWOOD — Assisted Living in Jacksonville, Florida

Discovery Village at Deerwood is a 172-bed assisted living facility in Jacksonville, Florida. Its CareQED Score is 57 out of 100 (Notable concerns), based on Florida AHCA inspection findings. AHCA records include 1 serious (Class 1 or 2) violation. The record also includes 1 state sanction or final order, a formal enforcement signal. Care options include memory care, 24-hour on-site nursing, limited nursing services (LNS). It has operated under Dsl Tenant II LLC for about 6 years.

Serious enforcement findings are present and a state sanction appears on the facility record, which is the main reason the score is depressed.
