Taylor Care Center

Nestled along the established Chester Avenue corridor in south Jacksonville, Taylor Care Center offers comprehensive skilled nursing services in a community-oriented, residential setting. As a non-profit corporation, Taylor Care Center channels its resources toward resident care and well-being, operating with a mission that prioritizes people over profit and long-term community trust over short-term financial gains. The Chester Avenue location places residents in Jacksonville's 32217 zip code, a well-established area known for its mature tree canopies, quiet neighborhoods, and proximity to major medical centers. Baptist Medical Center South on Old St. Augustine Road is a short drive away, offering emergency care, cardiac services, and a broad specialist network. St. Vincent's Medical Center Southside on St. Johns Bluff Road is also accessible, giving residents and families confidence that high-quality hospital care is always within reach. Families visiting will find a welcoming array of dining and retail nearby. San Marco Square — with its charming brick-lined streets, beloved local restaurants including Biscottis, The Grape, and Taverna — is just minutes north. The San Jose Boulevard corridor offers supermarkets, pharmacies, and everyday conveniences that streamline family logistics. For relaxed outdoor time, Losco Regional Park provides spacious grounds and walking paths ideal for seniors and their loved ones to enjoy together. The Chester Avenue neighborhood has a calm, suburban character that fosters a healing environment — removed from the noise of major commercial strips, yet well-connected to Jacksonville's broader infrastructure. Situated between the vibrant San Marco and Mandarin districts, residents benefit from the cultural richness and resources of both communities. Taylor Care Center's skilled nursing team provides 24-hour clinical monitoring, physical and occupational therapy, wound care, medication management, and individualized discharge planning. As a non-profit, the center's governance ensures that every decision reflects its core commitment to clinical excellence, resident dignity, and community accountability.
