Why “on the public record” matters

For nursing homes we cross-reference the federal CMS Care Compare five-star ratings, staffing data, abuse flags, and penalty history — linked to each facility only when the match is confident. For assisted living we publish AHCA license status and any sanctions on file. Ranking uses these verified signals alone; payment never moves a facility up.

FloridaElder covers the Tampa Bay counties shown in the directory. Available licensing, inspection and quality information varies by care type. Read the free inspection checklist for questions to ask before a visit.
