ISLANDS ALF (THE) — Assisted Living in Orlando, Florida
Islands Alf (the) is a 18-bed assisted living facility in Orlando, Florida. Its CareQED Score is 49 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 2 state sanctions or final orders, a formal enforcement signal. Care options include limited nursing services (LNS). It accepts Medicaid and VA benefits. It has operated under You'Re at Home Alf, INC for about 7 years.
Serious enforcement actions are the main reason for the score and continue to weigh heavily even though cited deficiencies have since been corrected. State reviews repeatedly flagged medication management and staff training and also noted gaps in admissions processing, basic resident care, medical records, and limited mental health supports; the facility has documented corrections to cited items but inspection results have fluctuated with a recent increase in findings, so the overall picture is mixed.
