Solaris Healthcare Merritt Island

Staffing at Solaris Healthcare Merritt Island is a bit of a mixed picture compared to other [Florida nursing homes](/florida/merritt-island). On the registered nurse side, residents here receive about 0.57 RN hours per day, which is slightly above the Florida average of 0.52, meaning there's a touch more access to higher-level nursing care on any given day. However, when you look at total nursing hours across all staff types combined, the facility comes in at 3.62 hours per resident per day, which falls a little short of the Florida average of 3.87. In practical terms, that gap in total hours could mean nursing aides and other care staff are managing more residents at once during a typical shift, which can affect how quickly someone gets help with daily needs like bathing, meals, or repositioning. Neither number is alarming, but families should factor this in, especially if their loved one needs more hands-on attention throughout the day.
