ERIKA'S HOUSE ALF — Assisted Living in Tampa, Florida
Erika's House Alf is a 6-bed assisted living facility in Tampa, Florida. Its CareQED Score is 76 out of 100 (Solid record), based on Florida AHCA inspection findings. AHCA records show no serious (Class 1 or 2) violations. The record also includes 2 state sanctions or final orders, a formal enforcement signal. It accepts Medicaid and VA benefits. It has operated under Care a Lot Homes LLC for about 6 years.
The facility's record is comparatively clean with no recent serious findings or active enforcement driving the score. Inspections have repeatedly flagged staffing standards and training as recurring care areas but those citations have been corrected and the pattern of findings has trended toward fewer and less severe issues recently, though a small number of older state sanctions remain on the public record and may predate the current inspection timeline.
