Charlotte Bay Rehabilitation & Care Center sits at 4033 Beaver Lane in Port Charlotte, Florida, providing skilled nursing and rehabilitation services for people who need care after a hospital stay or those who need long-term residence, and you'll find they have specialized services like onsite personalized kidney dialysis including both conventional and trach dialysis, which can be important for folks managing kidney conditions. The center has clinical teams of nurses, doctors, and therapists who try to create personalized care plans for each resident, and they're known for offering extra care navigation to help residents and their families work through all the details of health care needs. There's a focus on comfort too, with rooms and gathering spaces designed to feel more relaxed and home-like, and while residents enjoy a variety of amenities, activities, and an event calendar, the staff also works to keep things engaging with a photo and video gallery and community events.
They have 164 certified beds and tend to have an average daily census around 156 people, and if you're looking at staff, the nurse turnover rate runs high at 42.9% with 3.58 nursing hours per resident each day, so it's something to think about in terms of stability and care. Charlotte Bay is part of the Excelsior Care Group, and you'll see their staff speak English and offer both short-term rehab services and long-term care with round-the-clock nursing. If someone wants to see the place before deciding, they do allow personal tours, where you can get a look at the rooms, activities, and the special amenities they've set up for comfort and well-being. There are unique names for certain services and spaces, which aims to make things feel less institutional.
Now, the facility has had several state inspection deficiencies, including areas like administrative management, nursing and physician services with immediate jeopardy to resident safety, infection control, and even past issues with protecting residents from abuse or neglect, with 27 deficiencies recorded in inspection reports and a specific March 22, 2025 report showing three deficiencies, so that's worth careful consideration. Still, the team offers a wide range of rehabilitation therapies and clinical services plus care coordination. The setting is fairly tranquil and scenic, and they claim to have professional and compassionate staff, but families should be aware of the history of care concerns as well as the positive features when weighing their options. Currently, Charlotte Bay Rehabilitation & Care Center isn't taking new residents.
