Palmer Ranch Residence is a 118-bed assisted living facility in Sarasota, Florida. Its CareQED Score is 82 out of 100 (Solid record), based on Florida AHCA inspection findings.

Care options include memory care, 24-hour on-site nursing. It has operated under Pr Al Operations LLC for less than a year.

The facility’s comparatively clean AHCA record shows no recent serious findings or active enforcement actions and is the dominant reason for the Solid score. Inspectors have repeatedly noted issues mainly around resident care, emergency planning, admissions, medication handling, and staffing standards, but the cited deficiencies have been corrected and the inspection trend looks improving, although a handful of complaints were substantiated in the past.
