HORIZON ALF — Assisted Living in Fort Lauderdale, Florida
Horizon Alf is a 47-bed assisted living facility in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Its CareQED Score is 51 out of 100 (Notable concerns), based on Florida AHCA inspection findings. AHCA records show no serious (Class 1 or 2) violations. It accepts Medicaid and VA benefits. It has operated under Total Care Manor, INC. for about 23 years.
Routine deficiencies are the dominant driver. They mostly involve training, medication, resident care, physical plant, staffing standards and limited mental health, and nearly all cited issues were later corrected so no deficiencies remain open and there are no enforcement actions. The pattern is mixed with a recent uptick in findings after several smaller inspections, so the short-term trend looks unsettled rather than clearly improving.
