SWANKRIDGE — Assisted Living in Homestead, Florida

Swankridge is a 8-bed assisted living facility in Homestead, Florida. Its CareQED Score is 28 out of 100 (Serious concerns), based on Florida AHCA inspection findings. AHCA records include 2 serious (Class 1 or 2) violations. The record also includes 3 state sanctions or final orders, a formal enforcement signal. Care options include 24-hour on-site nursing. It has operated under Swankridge INC for about 34 years.

Serious enforcement findings are present and weigh heavily on the score. The AHCA record shows recurring problems with medication, staff training, resident records, direct resident care, and meeting staffing standards, and while the facility has corrected the cited deficiencies and currently has no open citations, state sanctions remain on file. Overall the inspection pattern is mixed, with repeated citations over time and a recent inspection that again identified multiple issues rather than a steady decline.
