Lucille's Loving Care

Miami Gardens, the Miami-Dade city best known as home to Hard Rock Stadium, includes a mix of established residential neighborhoods well away from the stadium traffic, including the stretch of Northwest 22nd Avenue where Lucille's Loving Care operates with 14 beds. That places it in the small-community range, big enough to have more than one caregiver on duty but still far smaller than the large campuses found elsewhere in the county. Miami-Dade's assisted living landscape includes hundreds of small licensed homes like this one, often family-run and drawing residents from the immediate neighborhood. It is worth asking how long current staff have worked at the home, since continuity of caregivers tends to matter most in homes of this size.
