Norita Adult Family Care, INC.

Norita Adult Family Care, INC. takes its name from the "adult family care" model common among Florida's smallest licensed homes, and its location at 11971 Sw 118 Street places it in the far western reaches of Kendall in unincorporated Miami-Dade County, not far from the Miami Executive Airport and Zoo Miami. Licensed for 6 beds, the home represents the smallest scale the state permits, which usually means residents are cared for by the same one or two people day after day rather than by rotating staff. West Kendall has expanded steadily outward over recent decades, and small homes like this one are often the closest option for families who've settled in the newer subdivisions further from Miami's urban core. Ask how the home structures its staffing on nights and weekends, since coverage patterns vary significantly among Florida's small family-care homes.
