Gentle Hand of Palm Bay Alf LLC is a 6-bed assisted living facility in Palm Bay, 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. It has operated under Gentle Hand of Palm Bay Alf, LLC for about 3 years.
Serious enforcement findings are the dominant driver of the score, because the facility has a recent pattern that includes at least one significant enforcement action and ongoing serious citations.
