HERITAGE HOUSE ASSISTED LIVING FACILITY — Assisted Living in Clearwater, Florida
Heritage House Assisted Living Facility is a 24-bed assisted living facility in Clearwater, Florida. Its CareQED Score is 35 out of 100 (Serious concerns), based on Florida AHCA inspection findings. AHCA records include 1 serious (Class 1 or 2) violation. The record also includes 3 state sanctions or final orders, a formal enforcement signal. Care options include 24-hour on-site nursing. It accepts Medicaid and VA benefits. It has operated under Kinlu LLC for about 3 years.
Serious enforcement findings are present and weigh heavily in the score, including state sanctions that remain part of the facility's record. Inspections repeatedly flagged training, medication handling, staffing standards, background screening, resident care, and food service; while cited deficiencies have been corrected on follow up, the persistence of these recurring care issues indicates an improving but still concerning pattern.
