SARABELLA SENIOR LIVING — Assisted Living in Sarasota, Florida
Sarabella Senior Living is a 134-bed assisted living facility in Sarasota, Florida. Its CareQED Score is 74 out of 100 (Mixed record), based on Florida AHCA inspection findings. AHCA records include 1 serious (Class 1 or 2) violation. The record also includes 1 state sanction or final order, a formal enforcement signal. Care options include 24-hour on-site nursing, extended congregate care (ECC). It accepts VA benefits. It has operated under Sarabella Operating LLC for about 5 years.
Serious findings are present and weigh heavily on the score. The state record shows repeated problems with medication management and with extended congregate care practices; the facility corrected past inspection citations in those areas but a state enforcement action remains on the file, and the pattern of fewer findings on successive inspections suggests an improving trend.
