SUNSET RETIREMENT HOME, INC — Assisted Living in Hialeah, Florida

Sunset Retirement Home, INC is a 48-bed assisted living facility in Hialeah, Florida. Its CareQED Score is 0 out of 100 (Serious concerns), based on Florida AHCA inspection findings. AHCA records include 7 serious (Class 1 or 2) violations. The record also includes 6 state sanctions or final orders, a formal enforcement signal. It has operated under Sunset Retirement Home INC for about 3 years.

Serious findings and active state enforcement drive the score, reflecting that the facility has been subject to high‑severity citations and formal sanctions that carry more weight than routine deficiencies. Recurring problems have centered on resident care, medication management, records, the physical plant, staffing standards, and admissions; although prior cited deficiencies have been corrected on inspection, the recurrence of high‑severity findings and the enforcement record show the overall pattern remains concerning rather than resolved.
