Birchwood Health and Rehab was recently inspected by Florida officials with the Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA). This for-profit Sarasota nursing home is licensed to provide 87 beds and is located at 3250 12th Street, Sarasota, Florida 34237.
Birchwood Health and Rehab remains on the Florida “Nursing Home Watch List” as of this date according to public records on file with AHCA. According to the Agency, “The Watch List identifies nursing homes that are operating under bankruptcy protection or met the criteria for a conditional status during the past 30 months. A conditional status indicates that a facility did not meet, or correct upon follow-up, minimum standards at the time of an inspection. Immediate action is taken if a facility poses a threat to resident health or safety. Under Florida law, nursing homes have a right to challenge state sanctions. Facilities challenging a conditional license are noted as “under appeal.” Watch List information is subject to change as appeals are processed.”
When inspectors returned to the facility to conduct a “monitor” visit in August, 2024, new violations were discovered and cited at that time.
