Citrus Garden ALF

Citrus Garden ALF is an assisted living facility in Winter Springs, FL, licensed by the state of Florida with license number 9138, and has room for up to 16 residents which keeps the setting quiet and easy to manage, and that's something a lot of people appreciate, especially when they're looking for somewhere that feels more like a home instead of a bigger place with lots of coming and going, and the staff here help with daily activities seniors need like bathing, dressing, managing medications, and they do this all day and night, which gives families some peace knowing somebody's there around the clock if something happens. The community is pet friendly, which makes it different from some places, and they have both private and semi-private rooms, so people can decide how much privacy they want, and all rooms are set up with things like a telephone, cable TV, sprinklers for safety, and wheelchair access for people who need it, plus there's Wi-Fi throughout the property so residents can stay connected. The grounds have landscaped walking paths and a garden, and there are plenty of ways to stay active like a fitness center, arts and crafts, movie nights, and a game room, and they also have scheduled activities, education and wellness programs, along with a salon and barbershop, so people can keep up with regular life the way they're used to. There's a dining room where they serve planned meals, and the staff know how to help people with special diets for diabetes or food allergies, and they prepare nutritious meals that taste good, which sometimes gets overlooked in other places. Laundry and housekeeping are included, and there's transportation and parking for outings, appointments, or just getting out for a while, and everything's pretty much set up to make life as easy as possible for people who need some help but still want to stay active and involved with others. The owners have more than 20 years' experience and are military spouses, so they know about structure and caring for different needs, and there's a good feeling of community here, with a focus on letting people keep their independence while getting some help when they're not able to do something on their own. The facility accepts Medicaid, which can be helpful for those who need assistance, and they offer specific care programs along with both assisted living and independent living options, so there's something for those who need more care and for those who like having help but still want some freedom of their own. The environment is calm and the staff are friendly, providing a supportive place for seniors who want a smaller, neighborhood-style senior living home.
