Madison Pointe Care Center

Madison Pointe Care Center holds an overall 3-star rating from CMS, which puts it in the average range nationally. That composite score is shaped by three separate ratings that each tell you something different about the facility, and in this case, those three pieces paint a mixed picture.

The health inspection rating is 2 stars, meaning state inspectors found more citations, or more serious ones, than you would typically see at a comparable facility. That is worth paying attention to, since inspections look at things like care practices, safety, and how well the facility follows regulations day to day. The staffing rating comes in at 3 stars, which means residents are getting a fairly typical amount of nurse time relative to how many people live there - not a standout, but not a concern either. Where Madison Pointe really shines is its 5-star quality measures rating, the highest possible score. This reflects how residents are actually doing physically and clinically - things like fall rates, pressure wounds, medication management, and ability to move around. A perfect score there suggests that whatever is happening inside those walls, residents tend to fare well health-wise. If you are weighing this facility for a loved one, the quality outcomes are genuinely encouraging, but it would be reasonable to ask the facility directly about the inspection findings before making a final decision.

Staffing at Madison Pointe Care Center runs a bit below what you'd typically see at Florida nursing homes across the state. Residents here receive about 3.55 total nurse hours per day, compared to the Florida average of 3.87, and registered nurse coverage comes in at 0.43 hours per resident daily versus the state average of 0.52. In practical terms, that gap might not sound like much on paper, but it can translate to nurses and aides managing slightly more residents at any given time, which means each person may get a little less one-on-one attention throughout the day. This doesn't necessarily reflect the quality of care, since staff experience, facility culture, and management practices all play a role, but it's a fair and reasonable factor to weigh as you compare your options.

Madison Pointe Care Center has a 2-out-of-5-star health inspection rating from the government, which is below average and worth taking seriously. There is one penalty on record, with a fine of $33,413 issued in April 2024. A single penalty does not automatically mean a facility is unsafe, but the combination of a below-average inspection rating and a fairly significant recent fine suggests families should look closely at this facility before making a decision. It is a good idea to ask the facility directly about what led to the penalty and what steps have been taken to address it.

1. How many residents does each certified nursing assistant care for during the day shift, and does that number change at night or on weekends?
2. How long have your nurses and aides been working here on average, and what does your staff turnover look like over the past year?
3. If my loved one has a fall or a medical concern in the middle of the night, walk me through exactly what happens from the moment staff discovers it to when the family gets a call.
4. Can I come back and visit at a different time of day, including evenings or weekends, without scheduling it in advance?
5. How do you handle a resident who refuses a meal, seems withdrawn, or starts showing signs that something might be wrong emotionally or physically?
6. What does a typical Tuesday look like for a resident who isn't participating in a scheduled activity, and who checks in on them throughout the day?
