Eagleridge Health And Rehabilitation Center

Eagleridge Health And Rehabilitation Center holds an overall 4-star rating, which means CMS considers it above average when weighed against other nursing homes nationwide. That overall score is a composite that pulls together three separate ratings, each measuring something different, so it helps to know what each one is actually telling you.

The 3-star health inspection rating is average, meaning state inspectors found a typical number of citations during their visits, nothing unusually concerning but not a spotless record either. The staffing rating is 2 stars, which is the area families should pay the closest attention to here. It means the facility has fewer nurse hours per resident than most comparable homes, so your loved one may have to wait longer for help and staff may feel stretched thin on a given shift. On the brighter side, the quality measures rating is a perfect 5 stars, reflecting that residents at Eagleridge are doing very well across 15 clinical outcomes like wound care, fall rates, and mobility. That top score suggests that despite the leaner staffing numbers, the facility is still delivering strong real-world results for residents' health. Together, those pieces push the overall score to a solid 4 stars, but if consistent hands-on attention matters most to your family, it is worth asking the facility directly about how they manage staffing levels day to day.

Staffing at Eagleridge Health And Rehabilitation Center is a bit of a mixed picture compared to other Florida nursing homes. On the registered nurse side, residents here actually get more one-on-one time with RNs than the state average, with 0.80 RN hours per resident per day versus Florida's average of 0.52. In practical terms, that means a more experienced nurse is more likely to be on hand when something comes up during the day. However, when you look at total nurse hours across all staff types combined, Eagleridge comes in at 3.42 hours per resident per day, which falls a little short of the Florida average of 3.87. That gap suggests that while RN coverage is solid, the overall team handling daily tasks like assistance with meals, bathing, and mobility may be stretched a bit thinner than at some other facilities. It is worth asking the facility directly how they staff across different shifts, since averages across a full day can sometimes mask differences between daytime and overnight coverage.

Eagleridge Health And Rehabilitation Center has a 3-out-of-5-star health inspection rating from the government, which puts it in the middle of the pack compared to other nursing homes. The facility has received 2 government penalties, with a combined total of $63,886 in fines, and the most recent penalty was issued as recently as January 2025. That recent date is worth noting, since it means this isn't just old history - regulators took action against this facility within the past several months. None of this automatically disqualifies a facility, but families should ask the staff directly about what happened, what was cited, and what steps were taken to fix it. Going in with those questions will help you get a clearer picture of how the facility responds to problems.

1. How many residents does each certified nursing assistant care for during a typical day shift, and does that number change on evenings and weekends?
2. How long have most of your CNAs and nurses been working at this specific facility, and what is your staff turnover rate over the past year?
3. If my family member had a fall or a sudden change in health, walk me through exactly what happens - who gets called, in what order, and how quickly?
4. What does a regular weekday actually look like for a resident who does not have many scheduled therapies - how do they spend their morning, afternoon, and evening?
5. Can I see the most recent state inspection report, and can you explain any deficiencies that were cited and what you did to correct them?
6. If I want to visit at different times - early morning, after dinner, or on a weekend - is that always allowed, and is there any time I would be asked to come back later?
