About this community

Avalon Healthcare Center in Lake City, Florida, is listed as a nursing home. Its service information names skilled nursing and rehabilitation, while another listing specifically identifies short-term rehabilitation. The profiles describe nursing-home care alongside a rehabilitation option, but do not state typical stay lengths or explain which services apply in particular circumstances. The facility is located on SW Main Boulevard, within Lake City.

Physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech-language pathology are the therapy disciplines named in facility information. They appear alongside skilled nursing and rehabilitation, adding detail to the services associated with the rehabilitation offering. The sources identify these therapy categories but do not set out session schedules, treatment frequency or individual plans. The listed disciplines indicate types of therapy named in the profiles, not a guarantee that each resident receives all three.

Residents are described as having a range of studio room layouts from which to choose. The available descriptions do not give dimensions or compare features, so they establish studio-style accommodation with more than one layout without detailing specific floor plans. One facility profile reports a capacity of 95 residents and lists a resident council. The profile presents the 95-resident figure as capacity, rather than current occupancy, and does not describe the council’s activities.

Meals are provided, and on-site activities and social functions are listed among the offerings. Named indoor amenities include an activity center, a library and a computer lounge. Together, the amenity listings identify several distinct shared resources: an activity space, a library and a computer area. The available information does not include an events calendar or explain how use of these amenities is organized.

Nearby grocery options include Winn-Dixie, listed 0.7 miles away; Publix, 1.5 miles away; and Walmart Supercenter, 2.2 miles away. Winn-Dixie is the closest of these named stores, and all three are listed within 2.2 miles of the community. These distances help locate grocery options in relation to the facility, but do not establish that shopping trips or transportation are provided.

Nearby medical locations include Lake City VA Medical Center, 0.5 miles away; Shands Lake Shore Regional Medical Center, 1.5 miles away; and Lake City Medical Center, 2.8 miles away. The VA medical center is the closest named location, while Lake City Medical Center is the farthest of the three. These listings provide geographic context for the nursing and rehabilitation setting; they do not indicate that the medical facilities are operated by or affiliated with the community, or that they provide on-site services to residents.
