GOLDEN YEARS ALF — Assisted Living in Riviera Beach, Florida
Golden Years Alf is a 40-bed assisted living facility in Riviera Beach, Florida. Its CareQED Score is 61 out of 100 (Mixed record), 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 accepts Medicaid. It has operated under Golden Years Alf Corporation for about 24 years.
Serious enforcement findings are present and are the main reason the score is reduced. Nearly all past citations have been corrected though an open citation remains; recurring care problems involve staff training, admissions processes, direct resident care and medication management, with additional concerns about staffing standards and emergency environmental controls, and the most recent inspection showed multiple deficiencies suggesting the trend is not clearly improving.
