THE OPAL AT LAKES PARK — Assisted Living in Fort Myers, Florida
The Opal at Lakes Park is a 75-bed assisted living facility in Fort Myers, Florida. Its CareQED Score is 76 out of 100 (Solid record), based on Florida AHCA inspection findings. AHCA records show no serious (Class 1 or 2) violations. The record also includes 1 state sanction or final order, a formal enforcement signal. Care options include limited nursing services (LNS). It accepts Medicaid and VA benefits. It has operated under Fort Myers Osl Property LLC for about 2 years.
No serious findings or active enforcement actions; the record is comparatively clean. Repeated citations have clustered around staffing, food service, resident care, background screening and training with a few admissions issues, and while the facility has corrected all cited deficiencies and closed open items the recurrence of those same care areas suggests a steady but slowly improving pattern rather than a dramatic turnaround.
