The Meadows of Sarasota Senior Living is a 75-bed assisted living facility in Sarasota, Sarasota County, Florida. Its CareQED grade is 69 out of 100 — a average record based on Florida AHCA inspection findings. AHCA records show no serious (Class 1 or 2) violations. It accepts the Medicaid Assisted Living waiver and VA benefits. It has operated under The Meadows of Sarasota Llc for about 4 years. As a not-for-profit, the facility participates in Medicaid waiver and VA programs, so it can be a viable option for residents relying on those payment sources. However, the license is currently listed as in litigation and the record shows multiple substantiated complaints and sanctions, so you may want to request the facility’s explanation and recent corrective actions regarding its regulatory status.
