The Barclay at St. Augustine

Is The Barclay at St. Augustine a licensed assisted living facility in Florida?

Yes — provisionally. The Barclay at St. Augustine holds Florida ALF license #12928 for 138 beds, issued by AHCA as a provisional license on December 19, 2025. AHCA issues provisional licenses to new licensees, including after a change of ownership, until the first full survey is complete.

AHCA recorded a change of ownership on December 19, 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.

Does The Barclay at St. Augustine offer memory care in St. Augustine?

Yes. The Barclay at St. Augustine'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 The Barclay at St. Augustine?

Start with what AHCA has already cited at The Barclay at St. Augustine — resident rights, contracts and visitation, record keeping and staffing standards — and ask what changed afterward; then cover overnight staffing, the full rate sheet and what would trigger a move-out.

• Can we take the residency agreement home to review before signing, and what is your visitation policy?
• How quickly are changes in my parent's condition documented and shared with family?
• How many direct-care staff are awake overnight, and how many residents does each one cover?
• Who helps residents with medications on the night shift, and how are missed or late doses caught?
• 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?

Tour at a mealtime, ask to see this week's activity calendar, and take the contract home. Under s. 429.28, F.S., a Florida ALF must give 45 days' written notice before a non-emergency relocation or discharge.

How does moving into The Barclay at St. Augustine work?

Florida requires a medical examination on AHCA Form 1823, completed within 60 days before or 30 days after admission, so The Barclay at St. Augustine 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 The Barclay at St. Augustine 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 The Barclay at St. Augustine has no opening, ask to be put on its waitlist and keep touring — availability at large Northeast Florida communities changes month to month.
