Heartland Health Care Center Lauderhill State Inspections and Surveys

Heartland of Lauderhill was randomly inspected by Florida’s Agency for Healthcare Administration (AHCA) on January 26, 2017. The state surveys found multiple deficiencies in the care provided by Heartland Lauderhill staff, including but not limited to:

• Dignity and respect of individuality of Heartland Lauderhill residents;
• Housekeeping, maintenance and cleanliness;
• Food storage and food safety;
• Medication errors;
• A resident’s right to have adequate and appropriate health care;
• A resident’s right to be treated with dignity.

It is unclear if these State violations resulted in subsequent litigation, although violations of Florida’s nursing home residents rights can be grounds for a civil lawsuit.
