Sarasota Health And Rehabilitation Center has 144 certified beds and offers a wide range of services like skilled rehabilitation, long-term nursing care, active adult living, assisted living, memory care, adult day services, home care, Medicare-certified home health care, and even hospice care, so you see people here get different types of help depending on what they need, and there's both short-term rehab for folks getting back on their feet after a hospital stay and ongoing care for those who need more support. The staff includes registered and licensed practical nurses, and they provide physical, occupational, and speech therapy, with restorative and palliative care being available as well. You'll find post-acute services here too, along with respite care if somebody needs a temporary stay. The center is a nursing home with skilled nursing for those who need a good deal of help, and they do have an interdisciplinary team that sits down with residents, families, and staff to make individualized plans, which helps services feel a bit more personal, though management has changed several times with people like John Richards and Tressa Amador running things.
The center is affiliated with the Florida Institute For Long Term Care and gets support from companies like Kane Financial Services, Facility Support Company, Consulting Support Services, and Aegir Health Management, all to help keep things running. Sarasota Health And Rehabilitation Center has a nurse turnover rate of 45.3% and an average staffing level of 3.07 nurse hours per resident each day, with care paid for by Medicaid or Medicare if you're eligible. Health inspection reports for the center showed 19 total deficiencies, including one on Resident Rights and another about Freedom from Abuse, Neglect, and Exploitation, both marked at a severity level D, which means there have been areas to improve as far as inspection records go. The overall CMS ratings put the center slightly below average for health inspections, though staffing and other quality measures sit about average, so it may not be perfect but it's working to provide care and meets a variety of needs. Folks living here get help with daily living and access to social activities, nutritional counseling, housekeeping, and laundry, all in a setting that's described as home-like and supportive, with a focus on dignity and respect. The center takes general inquiries, schedules tours, handles employment questions, and offers ways for families to contact residents, showing they're open to community and family involvement.
