Cortez House Inc

Cortez House Inc sits in a quiet Bradenton, Florida neighborhood, right across from G.T. Bray Park, and it's a small, family-owned assisted living home with 16 beds where residents can choose private or shared rooms, and you have your own kitchenette and can adjust room heating or cooling, which makes it feel more like home, and there's always someone around to help if you need any daily care, medication reminders, bathing, grooming, dressing, or even help getting around with walking or wheelchair support. The staff includes personal care assistants and nurses, and they handle pharmacy work and set up all doctor visits, which really takes the burden off families. People living here get daily diets made by a dietitian and the meals are cooked right there on-site, and there's laundry, housekeeping, and even dry cleaning so no one has to worry about chores. You'll find a fitness center, game room, arts and crafts, and programs for health, wellness, and education, and guests have parking so it's easy when friends or family visit. The building has internet, cable TV, and safety features like sprinklers and handicap-accessible areas, and you can use the in-house salon and barbershop whenever you like. They offer specialized support for memory care, including for those with dementia or Alzheimer's, have a nurse, pharmacist, and even a podiatrist come in, plus provide wound care and occupational therapy without the need to leave the place. The staff help with transportation for errands and outings, and daily group walks go over to G.T. Bray Park, which gives everyone a chance to enjoy being outside and to socialize. The environment's calm and comfortable, with a private lanai and a home-like feel, and there are care plans designed for each resident, including options for independent and assisted living, as well as respite stays. Cortez House doesn't allow pets in rooms, but has a few pet-friendly policies-though, it's best to check what's allowed. The place runs legally under state license 10127, managed by Ms. Carol Vojt and Mr. Eliseo Rojas, and the oversight comes from the Agency for Health Care Administration, so you know there's an official process making sure things are up to standard. It's listed as a corporation and belongs to BBB of West Florida with an A+ rating, though it doesn't have the BBB accreditation. They accept long-term care insurance, and all costs are inclusive, with no surprises for extras like medication support or extra care. Residents can count on respect, a simple living arrangement, and enough activities to stay comfortable and safe.
