LA CASA ASSISTED LIVING COMMUNITY — Assisted Living in Merritt Island, Florida

La Casa Assisted Living Community is a 36-bed assisted living facility in Merritt Island, Florida. Its CareQED Score is 24 out of 100 (Serious concerns), based on Florida AHCA inspection findings. AHCA records include 3 serious (Class 1 or 2) violations. The record also includes 3 state sanctions or final orders, a formal enforcement signal. Care options include memory care. It accepts the Medicaid Assisted Living waiver and VA benefits. It has operated under La Casa Operations, LLC for about 3 years.

Serious findings are present and are the primary reason for the low score, and the facility also has state sanctions on its record that increase the enforcement weight. Inspections have repeatedly cited problems in resident care, staffing standards, emergency planning, admissions, the physical plant, and staff training, and while many citations were later corrected the record includes multiple substantiated complaints and continuing serious findings. The overall pattern is mixed: fewer routine citations have appeared recently but recurring resident care and staffing deficiencies together with the enforcement history make the trend concerning rather than clearly resolved.
