THE BARCLAY AT SARASOTA — Assisted Living in Sarasota, Florida

The Barclay at Sarasota is a 110-bed assisted living facility in Sarasota, Florida. Its CareQED Score is 44 out of 100 (Notable concerns), based on Florida AHCA inspection findings. AHCA records show no serious (Class 1 or 2) violations. The record also includes 4 state sanctions or final orders, a formal enforcement signal. Care options include 24-hour on-site nursing, extended congregate care (ECC). It has operated under Lake Pointe Boulevard Tenant LLC for about 2 years.

Routine deficiencies are the dominant driver of the score, reflecting a recent stream of nonserious citations that the facility largely corrected while one routine citation remains open. The recurring themes have been resident care, background screening clearinghouse issues, medication handling, and staffing standards, and the recent pattern appears to be improving with fewer and mostly corrected findings on the latest inspections.
