Nursing Home Watch List

The Nursing Home Guide Watch List identifies nursing homes that are operating under bankruptcy protection or met the criteria for a conditional status during the past 30 months. A conditional status indicates that a facility did not meet, or correct upon follow-up, minimum standards at the time of an inspection. Immediate action is taken if a facility poses a threat to resident health or safety. Under Florida law, nursing homes have a right to challenge state sanctions. Facilities challenging a conditional license are noted as under Appeal. Watch List information is subject to change as appeals are processed; information is updated regularly on this web site.

Senate Bill 1284 which passed during the 2006 Florida Legislative Session resulted in changes to the Nursing Home Watch List. Watch List information is now included for nursing homes within the online Nursing Home Guide, you may also search for all Watch List facilities. The electronic version of the Guide will continue to be updated quarterly and posted on the Agency’s web site approximately 45 days after the end of the calendar quarter (by the 15th calendar day of the second month following the end of the calendar quarter); however the electronic Watch List data will be updated daily.
