Aviata at Kissimmee Gardens sits at 1120 and 1092 W Donegan Ave in Kissimmee, one of several locations across Florida, and here you'll find a large staff-part of a company with over 5,000 workers-focused on hospital and healthcare services, especially skilled nursing and post-acute care, which includes everything from help with bathing, dressing, and transfers, to medication management, long-term care, respite services, and care for Alzheimer's and dementia. The place keeps nurses and aides around the clock with both 24-hour supervision and 12-16 hour nursing care shifts, and the nurse turnover rate runs at about 31.5%. The facility has 120 certified beds and usually about 116 residents daily, and reports have shown some problems in the past, like 32 deficiencies on inspection-two related to infection control and some others tied to nutritional and nursing services. Operations have been under Aspire Management LLC since September 2023, and West Donegan Snf Parent LLC owns the place, with links to several other entities.
Rooms come with private bathrooms, kitchenettes, air-conditioning, cable, telephone, WiFi, and full furnishings, and housekeeping and linen services are included. Residents can get around using community-operated transportation or have staff help arrange rides for non-medical needs too. The dining room gives out restaurant-style meals and can adjust for dietary restrictions-for example, diabetes diets-and for fun or exercise folks use the fitness room, gaming room, small library, garden, and wellness center, not to mention a beauty salon. Aviata at Kissimmee Gardens keeps a full slate of daily activities, including resident-run gatherings, planned day trips, mental wellness programs, and wellness courses. Move-in coordination and concierge services are on offer, and the computer center helps residents stay in touch or occupied.
Skilled therapy services include physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy, and staff like physical therapists Gesler Michael and Venters Evan Marcus handle a range of recovery and chronic pain programs, as well as support for people after surgery or with sports injuries, always with a focus on personalized care. Aviata at Kissimmee Gardens puts emphasis on patient safety, listening to each resident, and trying to meet individual needs with caring hearts and skilled hands, working under the philosophy of "people first." Staff stay involved through discharge planning and community programs, and the team aims to exceed expectations every day, though families should know the facility has had some history of care issues in its records.
