About this community

Ingleside ALF Home is in Jacksonville, Florida, in the Avondale area. It is described as an assisted living facility; some directory records also categorize it as a board-and-care home. Listings report a licensed capacity of 18 residents and describe a two-story building, indicating a small residential setting. The available information focuses on personal support and shared daily-life features rather than a broad range of care levels.

Care listings include 24-hour supervision and help with activities of daily living. Specific assistance includes medication management and help with bathing, dressing and transfers. The listed care options also include support for non-ambulatory residents, a respite program and coordination with health care providers. Wheelchair accessibility appears among the reported features. The descriptions do not outline individual care plans or explain how services may vary by resident.

Furnished rooms, telephone access and an emergency alert system are among the listed features. Practical services include move-in coordination, housekeeping and laundry service or dry cleaning. Transportation and parking are also listed, though the descriptions do not detail routes or schedules. A third-party profile reports that pets are not allowed and that the home accepts CHAMPUS, Medicaid and Veterans Affairs benefits; these are listing details, not confirmation of current eligibility or coverage.

Dining is described as available indoors and outdoors, with a dining room and garden among the noted features. Meal preparation and service are listed, as are scheduled meals and all-day dining. The dining information also includes options for allergy-sensitive, diabetes-related and other special dietary needs. No menus or details about how individual dietary requirements are handled are provided. The garden and listed walking paths offer outdoor features alongside the dining spaces.

Activities listed for the home include arts and crafts, cooking classes, dancing, exercise classes, games and cards, gardening and music programs. Shopping, social events and outings, and theater or movies also appear in activity listings. Movie nights and community-sponsored activities are specifically noted. These offerings cover creative, social and recreational interests, but the available descriptions do not provide a weekly calendar or say how often each activity takes place.

Area descriptions mention parks, restaurants, the St. Johns River and public transportation. Approximate nearby locations listed include Casbah Cafe, about half a mile away; Akumin, about a mile away; Walgreens, roughly 1.1 miles away; and Ascension St. Vincent’s Riverside, about 1.2 miles away. These are neighborhood references, not affiliations with the home. One directory profile lists visiting hours as 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily.

This place is a house of horrors. They isolate individuals who are not who people want to look at. They defrost their meat on the counter top and serve only pork and chicken so you can see the blood from the defrosted meat with the meat just”marinating” in the blood. They serve the cheapest food in the market. The food served was 99.9%. Horrible. People urinating at will where they want. I shared a bathroom with six other people. And one man would urinate all over the bathroom. They couldn’t control the environment. It was way over priced. They claim to have suites. It’s an outright lie. The…

This place is a house of horrors. They isolate individuals who are not who people want to look at. They defrost their meat on the counter top and serve only pork and chicken so you can see the blood from the defrosted meat with the meat just”marinating” in the blood. They serve the cheapest food in the market. The food served was 99.9%. Horrible. People urinating at will where they want. I shared a bathroom with six other people. And one man would urinate all over the bathroom. They couldn’t control the environment. It was way over priced. They claim to have suites. It’s an outright lie. The staff, Marinel, salvation, Ruby were great. The director would be lost without Marinel. The house dr., Dr Singh was a joke. I have severe back pain and he REFUSED do do an MRI on me. Once I left and moved to Lakeland I found a pain and spine dr sent me immediately for MRI OF THORACIC AND LUMBAR. I have several things wrong with my back. Dr. Singh was incompetent in my opinion. I had five UTI’s during my stay. I wouldn’t put my worst enemy in a place like this.. It’s crawling with huge roaches. In the kitchen too. Totally unclean. People were made to shower only when family was coming to visit or take them out of there for awhile. I was independent so required no help. I taught myself to walk without any assistance and climb their very steep stairs. When I got there they had no problem with me having a walker to carry up and down the stairs but soon it became a problem so that’s when I decided to teach myself to walk up and down the stairs. The chairlift was a pain in the neck for them to transport people. DO NOT PUT A LOVED ONE IN THIS PLACE. No activities to do the videos shown are of the staff dancing. Everyone else sat in a comatose manner watching a tv with nature flicks only. I spent my time in my overpriced room or outside for peace from the chaos. I will nightmares for the rest of my life over this place. My jerk of a husband put me there so he could have a break. I am currently in divorce proceedings and revoked him as my POA changing it to my sister.

The staff and doctor is great. Staff does there best here to help you out. Medication. Is give out on time. Food is good. Been here 3 months now. The staff go's out of there way to help you out

Ingleside ALF Home is staffed by loving caregivers and offers an exceptionally clean, well-appointed home environment. The owner, Era McGill, and her entire team are kind, organized, and resourceful. The homes she manages are fully remodeled, truly beautiful, and remarkably welcoming. When my parents were hospitalized, Era and her team visited them in the hospital, coordinated directly with clinicians, arranged transportation, and ultimately managed their care with a level of professionalism, efficiency, and warmth that exceeded every expectation.

My mother stayed here at the end of her life. She loved this place and it was like a family in a home not a facility. I still go back and visit.

Everyone is very nice to their residents. They treat everyone like family. the home is very clean and small good. the residents have healthy and great meals. I would recommend ingleside to any family member who is looking for a place for a loved one. you are able to visit anytime. would have given them a 10 star, but I didn't have that option

The home is run professionally and administrator is very responsive. The staff is the most caring and hard working that I have ever encountered. The atmosphere is calm and relaxing. I’m jealous of the good food. Most of all, my aunt is extremely happy to live here. I’m very thankful to Mrs McGil and her wonderful staff.

Staff is extremely friendly! Residents are very well taken care of, they treat them like they are family. Very neat and clean inside.

My mother is in such loving hands here! We receive updates and the staff is friendly, caring and careful. I have worked in ALFs before and this is the BEST alternative to home you can choose. Cozy and clean! Love the surrounding area as well.
