Heron House Of Largo

Heron House of Largo is an assisted living facility located at 2050 E Bay Dr in Largo, Florida, within Pinellas County. The facility operates with 145 certified beds and is currently active. As an assisted living facility, it provides residential care and supportive services to older adults who require assistance with daily living activities but do not necessarily need the level of medical care provided in a skilled nursing setting. CMS star ratings for overall performance, health inspections, staffing, and quality measures are not currently available in the public dataset for Heron House of Largo. The absence of these ratings may reflect the facility type, as CMS star ratings are primarily applied to Medicare and Medicaid certified skilled nursing facilities rather than assisted living facilities, which are regulated at the state level. Oversight of assisted living facilities in Florida is conducted by the Agency for Health Care Administration, which maintains licensure records and inspection histories. Prospective residents and family members seeking inspection reports or licensure status for this facility are encouraged to consult the AHCA database directly for the most current information. Regarding payment and insurance, assisted living facilities such as Heron House of Largo typically operate on a private pay basis, with costs covered by personal funds, long-term care insurance, or other private arrangements. Medicare generally does not cover room and board costs at assisted living facilities, though it may cover certain medical services provided on-site. Medicaid coverage for assisted living in Florida is available through specific waiver programs, such as the Statewide Medicaid Managed Care Long-Term Care program, though eligibility and availability vary. Contacting the facility directly at (727) 559-7776 is the most reliable way to confirm accepted payment methods and current availability. Because CMS star ratings are not applicable to this assisted living facility in the same manner as skilled nursing facilities, a direct comparison to Florida state averages for those metrics is not available. Florida is home to a large number of licensed assisted living facilities, reflecting the state's significant senior population. When evaluating any assisted living option, reviewing state inspection records, staffing disclosures, and facility-specific programs through official state resources provides a more complete picture of care quality and compliance history.
