The Living Center in Enid runs on a surprisingly strong staffing picture for a 50-bed for-profit: 4.39 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 14% above the national average, with turnover at 35% against a national 45.8%. Weekend coverage dips about 13% below its own weekday staffing, so ask how that plays out on Sundays. The inspection record backs it up, a five-star health inspection rating, a 4/5 on quality measures, and 12 deficiencies on file with none at harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related. Its most recent inspection was May 2025, so the record is current.

River Valley runs about 3.54 nurse hours per resident each day, roughly 8% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip another 6% below its own weekday numbers, so ask how coverage holds up on a Saturday. What offsets that: turnover sits at 30% against a national 45.8%, meaning aides and nurses tend to stay, and staff who know residents matter more than a marginal hour. Five deficiencies on record, none at harm level, none abuse-related, with an inspection dated March 2026. One hundred beds under for-profit partnership ownership. Good numbers, thinner staffing than average, worth a visit.

University Park runs a little richer on nursing hours than the typical American home, 3.93 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage holds steady rather than thinning out like it does at a lot of places. Staff turnover sits at 34.7%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters for whether your family sees the same faces month to month. The 28 deficiencies on record include one tied to abuse, though none rose to the level of actual harm or jeopardy, and the most recent state inspection came in March 2025. For-profit partnership ownership, 139 beds.

Kingwood Skilled Nursing and Therapy runs 3.44 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 11% under the national average of 3.86, a gap families should weigh, since daily hands-on time is what shows up on a Tuesday afternoon. Weekend staffing dips about 2% below its own weekday level, so the difference isn't dramatic, but it's worth asking who covers Saturdays. Turnover sits at 39%, better than the 45.8% national figure, meaning fewer unfamiliar faces at the bedside. Inspections turned up 17 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though three were abuse-related, plus one fine of $15,180; the last inspection was May 2026. Corporate-owned and 105 beds.

Mangum Skilled Nursing And Therapy runs 140 certified beds under for-profit partnership ownership, and the nurse staffing number, 4.07 hours per resident day, sits about 5% above the national average of 3.86. That sounds solid until you notice weekends drop roughly 7% below the home's own weekday coverage, and annual turnover hits 52.9% against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves each year. The inspection record shows four deficiencies, two serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus one fine of $14,069; the most recent inspection was December 2024. Strong quality measure scores and a recent survey help, but consistent weekend coverage and retention are the real questions to ask about.

Cimarron Nursing Center runs 3.96 nurse hours per resident day, about 3% above the national average, and weekend staffing dips roughly 11% below its own weekday level, worth asking about if your family visits on Saturdays or Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 44.3%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, and that stability shows in the inspection record: six deficiencies total, none at the harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in February 2025. A 5/5 health inspection star rating and 4/5 on quality measures back that up. It's a for-profit corporate home with 92 certified beds, so ask who owns it and how long they've held the license.

Hensley runs a leaner ship than most. Nurse staffing sits at 4.42 hours per resident per day, roughly 15% above the national average, which is a real cushion when you're thinking about call lights and therapy time. Turnover is 43.2%, slightly better than the national 45.8%, though weekends drop about 14% below weekday coverage, worth asking about directly. The health inspection record is clean where it counts: six deficiencies total, none at harm or jeopardy level, and a 5-star inspection rating from a visit as recent as May 2025. Two abuse-related citations still show on the record, so ask how those were resolved.

Staff turnover

Wagoner Health & Rehab has a staffing story that cuts both ways. The 4.11 nurse hours per resident day tops the national average by about 6%, and weekend coverage barely dips from weekday levels, which matters when families visit and see who's actually on the floor. But 55% annual turnover means more than half the nursing staff leaves every year, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people providing that care keep changing. The inspection record shows 37 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent survey in April 2025. Quality measures score well; the health inspection side is where this home gives ground.

Covenant Living At Inverness runs a tight ship on paper. The Tulsa nonprofit, 44 beds, holds top CMS marks for health inspections and quality measures, and its six deficiencies carry no harm or jeopardy findings and nothing abuse-related. Last inspection was September 2024. Nurse staffing sits at 3.83 hours per resident day, just under the 3.86 national average, and weekends dip about 8% below weekdays, worth asking about if your family visits Saturdays. Annual turnover of 42.6% edges out the national 45.8%, which is modestly good news for a workforce that usually churns. The weak spot is consistency, not care quality.

Grove Nursing Center runs 133 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.98 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage actually holds up, running about 5% above its own weekday level, which isn't typical. Staff turnover is 41.1%, lower than the 45.8% national figure, so people tend to stay longer here than at the average home. The inspection record is the strongest part: 16 deficiencies on file, but none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in July 2024. Quality measures score middle of the pack. Nothing here suggests a problem home; the numbers point to steady, adequately staffed care.

Senior Village Healthcare runs on a leaner nursing staff than most homes, about 3.44 nurse hours per resident each day against a national average near 3.86, and weekend coverage dips roughly another 5% below its own weekday levels. Yet that smaller crew stays put: turnover sits at 26.7%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters when you're talking about whether your mother sees the same faces week to week. The inspection record backs that up, with a 4-star health inspection rating, 16 total deficiencies but none at harm or jeopardy level, no abuse citations, and a survey as recent as August 2024. The quality measure score, a 3, is the softer spot.

Mid-Del runs a for-profit partnership in Del City with 61 certified beds, and its staffing sits at 4.22 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average of 3.86. That margin has limits: weekend coverage drops about 12% below the home's own weekday levels, and annual turnover is 50% against a national 45.8%, so the extra hours don't necessarily come from a stable crew. Inspections look solid on paper: a 4/5 health inspection rating, 11 total deficiencies with none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and the most recent visit was March 20, 2025. Federal ratings put staffing and quality measures at 4/5 each.

Western Skilled Nursing And Therapy runs on 3.39 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 12% under the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage dips about 3% below what it manages on weekdays. Staff turnover sits at 52.4%, well above the 45.8% national rate, so the people around your family member change more often than at the typical home. The good news is real: inspections in November 2024 produced five deficiencies, none at the harm level and just one tied to abuse, and both the health inspection and quality measure ratings come back at the top of the scale. It's a for-profit partnership, which tends to mean tighter staffing budgets, worth asking about directly.

Green Country Care Center runs 114 beds in Tulsa under corporate ownership, and its last inspection in November 2024 turned up 27 deficiencies, one of them serious enough to reach the harm or jeopardy level. Nothing on record involves abuse, but that volume of findings is a lot to carry, and the health inspection rating sits at 2 out of 5. Staffing is the weaker signal still, 1 out of 5 stars, meaning the hours worked per resident fall well below what CMS expects. One thing in the home's favor: annual staff turnover of 33.3% beats the national average of 45.8%, so the people who are there tend to stay.

Southbrook runs a tight ship on inspections, a five-star health inspection rating and ten total deficiencies on record, none of them causing harm or involving abuse. The tradeoff shows up in day-to-day coverage: nurse staffing sits at 3.59 hours per resident day, about 7% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 17% thinner than weekdays, so care can feel different depending on when you visit. Staff retention works in its favor, though, with turnover at 33.3% against a national average near 46%. Ownership is corporate and for-profit, and the last full inspection was in January 2025.

Lindsay Nursing & Rehab runs 106 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.39 hours per resident day, roughly 12% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 5% below the home's own weekday coverage, and annual turnover is 47.8%, a couple points above the national figure. The current inspection record shows 17 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though three are abuse-related. Inspectors were last on site in December 2024. Quality measures score well, staffing and health inspections sit in the middle.

Medicalodges Dewey runs on thinner staffing than most homes, 3.33 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dropping roughly 19% below its own weekday levels. That gap matters most on Saturdays and Sundays, when families often visit and when problems tend to surface. Turnover sits at 40.7%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, and the last inspection in November 2024 earned a 4 out of 5 on health inspections despite 22 deficiencies on record, including three tied to abuse. None of those deficiencies rose to the level of actual harm or jeopardy, which is the distinction that matters most. The corporate owner operates for profit, and the numbers suggest a home that's neither failing nor excelling.

Talihina Manor runs 69 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.65 hours per resident day, roughly 6% under the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 2% below its own weekday levels, which matters in a small rural home where backup staff are harder to call in. The inspection record shows 21 deficiencies, one of them abuse-related, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level. Its last inspection was July 2025, so the picture is current. Quality measures score well; staffing and health inspections land in the middle. For a family weighing this home, the questions worth asking are about weekend coverage and how that abuse deficiency was resolved.

Enid Senior Care runs 102 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing is the strongest part of the picture: 4.17 total nurse hours per resident day, about 8% above the national average, with a 4-out-of-5 CMS staffing rating to match. Turnover sits at 40.3%, better than the 45.8% national figure. The concerns are elsewhere. Sixteen deficiencies sit on the current record, two of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and one fine totaling $34,805 has been levied. Inspections are recent, from November 2024, and there are no abuse-related citations. Weekend staffing drops roughly 11% below its own weekday level, so ask how that gap gets covered.

Meadowbrook Nursing Center runs about 65 beds in Chouteau under limited liability ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing I'd look at. At 3.26 nurse hours per resident day, it sits roughly 16 percent under the national average, and weekends dip below its own weekday level, meaning the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Turnover near 48 percent tops the national figure, so the people providing that care keep changing. The inspection record is harder to explain away: 34 deficiencies, two at harm or jeopardy level, three tied to abuse, and nearly $29,000 in fines. A five-star quality measure score can reflect good clinical documentation rather than good day-to-day care, and with a one-star inspection rating and a March 2026 survey, I'd ask pointed questions before deciding.
