Anthem Lakes Waterview Senior Living

Is Anthem Lakes Waterview Senior Living a licensed assisted living facility in Florida?

Yes. Anthem Lakes Waterview Senior Living at 905 Assisi Ln, Atlantic Beach, FL 32233 holds an active Florida Assisted Living Facility license, #12972, for 136 beds, issued by the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA) and valid through August 31, 2027.

AHCA recorded a change of ownership on September 1, 2025, so the current licensee's own history starts there; older inspections and fines in the record belong largely to the previous operator. Ask who runs the building day to day now.

Check it yourself on FloridaHealthFinder, which shows the license dates, specialty licenses, ownership and any sanctions AHCA has imposed.

Has AHCA fined or sanctioned Anthem Lakes Waterview Senior Living?

No. Anthem Lakes Waterview Senior Living's FloridaHealthFinder profile lists no AHCA fines, conditional licenses or other sanctions as of October 2026.

That puts it among the 41 Duval County assisted living facilities with no fine since 2021. A clean sanction record is a good sign, but still read the inspection reports — most citations never lead to a fine.

Does Anthem Lakes Waterview Senior Living offer memory care in Atlantic Beach?

Yes. Anthem Lakes Waterview Senior Living's AHCA profile lists a Memory Care program. Florida has no separate memory care license, so memory care is delivered under the ALF license, and a facility that advertises Alzheimer's care must disclose those services and train staff under Florida's ADRD rules.

It holds no ECC, LNS or LMH specialty license, so its care is limited to standard ALF services; a resident who needs regular nursing care would generally need a facility with a specialty license or a nursing home.

What should you ask when touring Anthem Lakes Waterview Senior Living?

Start with what AHCA has already cited at Anthem Lakes Waterview Senior Living — medication assistance, storage and records, resident rights, contracts and visitation and emergency planning and backup power — and ask what changed afterward; then cover overnight staffing, the full rate sheet and what would trigger a move-out.

• Who helps residents with medications on the night shift, and how are missed or late doses caught?
• Can we take the residency agreement home to review before signing, and what is your visitation policy?
• Does the generator run air conditioning for the whole building, and how much fuel do you keep on site during hurricane season?
• Which care needs would require a move to a nursing home?
• How long have the administrator and the resident care director been in their roles?
• Is a nurse on site every day, and who covers nights and weekends?
• What happens if a resident runs out of private funds — do you work with SMMC long-term care plans?
• Can we visit unannounced in the evening and at mealtimes?

Visit twice — once at a meal and once in the evening — and read the residency agreement before paying a deposit. Florida gives ALF residents specific rights under s. 429.28, F.S., including 45 days' written notice before a non-emergency relocation or discharge.

How does moving into Anthem Lakes Waterview Senior Living work?

Florida requires a medical examination on AHCA Form 1823, completed within 60 days before or 30 days after admission, so Anthem Lakes Waterview Senior Living can confirm it can meet your parent's needs.

• Residency agreement. Florida requires a written contract listing the services, the rate and the notice the facility must give before a rate increase; compare it with other communities before signing.
• Memory care placement. Ask how Anthem Lakes Waterview Senior Living decides between assisted living and memory care for a new resident, and whether a move between them changes the rate.
• Payment. Most residents pay privately; long-term care insurance, VA Aid & Attendance and, where accepted, SMMC LTC Medicaid can offset costs.

If Anthem Lakes Waterview Senior Living has no opening, ask to be put on its waitlist and keep touring — availability at large Northeast Florida communities changes month to month.
