STARLIGHT ALF AT DELAND — Assisted Living in Deland, Florida
Starlight Alf at Deland is a 9-bed assisted living facility in Deland, Florida. Its CareQED Score is 39 out of 100 (Serious concerns), based on Florida AHCA inspection findings. AHCA records show no serious (Class 1 or 2) violations. The record also includes 3 state sanctions or final orders, a formal enforcement signal. It accepts VA benefits. It has operated under Starlight Assisted Living at Deland LLC for about 4 years.
The score is driven by the volume and recency of routine deficiencies rather than any serious enforcement, since the facility’s citations have been routine and largely corrected. Recurring areas include training, staffing standards, resident care, records, background screening attestation, and medication, most of which were corrected on follow up; the pattern shows repeated recurrence in those areas with a recent uptick after earlier lower counts.
