Warr Acres Nursing Center runs 103 certified beds as a for-profit limited liability company, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.30 hours per resident per day, about 14% below the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips roughly 5% below its own weekday level, so the thinnest shifts come when families tend to visit. The current record shows 15 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection dated April 25, 2025. CMS gives it 4 out of 5 stars on quality measures but only 2 on staffing. That split is the story: the clinical metrics look decent, the hands-on hours don't keep pace.

The Villages at Southern Hills scores well on inspections, a five-star health inspection rating and just three deficiencies on record, none causing harm and none tied to abuse. That clean survey history, most recently updated in January 2025, is the strongest thing this Tulsa home has going for it. Staffing is the weak spot. The one-star staffing rating is the kind of number that shows up in day-to-day experience: fewer aides per resident, longer waits. Annual turnover at 51.8% sits above the national average of 45.8%, meaning more than half the workforce leaves each year. As a for-profit LLC with 110 beds, that churn can mean constantly training new faces. Families weighing this one should ask specifically how the home covers shifts on weekends and nights.

Serious cites

Skiatook Nursing Home runs 4.50 nurse hours per resident day, about 17% above the national average, and weekend staffing holds close to weekday levels. But that staffing star rating comes out at 1 out of 5, because the hours aren't translating into a stable workforce: turnover is 58.8% against a national 45.8%. The inspection record shows 12 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two abuse-related. A 4/5 inspection rating and October 2024 visit are pluses, but the combination of high turnover and abuse citations is what keeps this at a B rather than higher. Worth asking about direct-care aide retention.

Nowata Nursing Center runs 4.18 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 8% above the national average, and weekend staffing holds steady against weekdays, which is not universal in this industry. The trade-offs show up elsewhere. Staff turnover sits at 53.5% against a national figure near 45.8%, so the people providing that above-average coverage are cycling out faster than average. Eighteen deficiencies appear on the current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level but one tied to abuse. The most recent inspection was November 2024. Ownership is for-profit, a limited liability company. The staffing numbers are real; whether they hold depends on who's still there next year.

Tulsa Nursing Center runs about 3.17 nurse hours per resident day, which is roughly 18% under the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage dips about 8% below its own weekday staffing. That thin margin shows up in the 2/5 staffing star, and annual turnover of 51.3% sits above the national 45.8%. The good news is that care quality measures rate 5/5, and the 20 deficiencies on record include none at the harm level and none abuse-related. A state inspection from March 2025 is recent. The tradeoff is clear: strong clinical outcomes, but a workforce stretched thin enough that consistency may be uneven.

The Springs runs 4.14 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 7% above the national average, and weekend staffing holds close to weekday levels, a small dip of about 3%. That part is solid. What pulls the picture down is turnover: 57.1% of nursing staff leaving annually against a national 45.8%, plus 39 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related. Inspectors were last in on November 20, 2025, and the health inspection rating sits at 3 out of 5. For-profit partnership ownership. The aide hours are there, but a home replacing more than half its nurses every year is hard to staff consistently, and the deficiency record reflects that strain.

Colonial Terrace runs a 75-bed for-profit home in Pryor, and its recent inspection history is genuinely solid, 26 deficiencies on record, but none at the harm or jeopardy level, and no abuse citations. The problem sits on the staffing side, where the federal data gives it just one star out of five, and annual turnover runs about 55% against a national average near 46%. That combination matters: good survey results can mask a floor where caregivers keep cycling out. The last inspection was in April 2026, so the picture is current. Quality measures score well. If you're considering this one, ask directly how many CNAs have been here more than a year.

Meridian Nursing Home in Comanche runs 63 beds under individual for-profit ownership, and its inspection record is the strongest thing about it: one deficiency on file, none involving harm or jeopardy, none abuse-related, and a survey as recent as November 2024. Staffing is where it thins out. At 3.65 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 5% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 12% below its own weekday levels, so the coverage your family member gets on a Saturday isn't what they'd get on a Tuesday. Turnover, at 45.5%, tracks almost exactly with the national figure. Quality measures land mid-range. A solid record on safety, with room to improve on consistency of care.

Marlow Nursing & Rehab is a 69-bed for-profit home owned by an individual, and the numbers that stand out most are on the staffing side. Total nurse coverage runs 3.61 hours per resident day, about 6% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 7% below the home's own weekday level. The bigger concern is turnover: 71.4% annually against a national average of 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for residents are relatively new. Its record shows 30 deficiencies, one abuse-related, though none rose to harm or jeopardy, and the most recent inspection was in late 2025. Quality measures score well; staffing and inspection results are more mixed.

Magnolia Creek runs 158 certified beds in Altus under for-profit partnership ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.64 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 6% under the national average of 3.86. That gap widens on weekends, when coverage drops about 10% below the home's own weekday level. Annual turnover is the number I'd ask about: 58.8% of staff leaving each year against a national average of 45.8%, which means aides and nurses are cycling through faster than most places. The inspection record shows 17 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level but one abuse-related, and the most recent survey was January 28, 2026. A recent, fairly clean inspection is worth something here.

Rainbow Health Care Community runs 106 certified beds in Bristow under for-profit limited liability ownership, and its nurses provide 3.56 hours of care per resident each day, about 8% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop roughly 16% below the home's own weekday staffing, and annual turnover sits at 51.9% against a national 45.8%, so the caregivers change over more often than at a typical home. The current record shows 22 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, plus a $53,804 fine. The last inspection was July 24, 2025. Quality measures score well, but staffing and inspection results tell the more useful story.

Lakeview Nursing & Rehab runs 70 certified beds in Eufaula under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.72 hours per resident day, about 4% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip roughly 5% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts come when families tend to visit. The inspection record is the bright spot: a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating and a recent survey in February 2025. But 22 deficiencies sit on the current record, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and quality and staffing each rate 2 out of 5. Nothing here is abuse-related, and the home isn't flunking, but low staffing paired with a thin quality score is the pattern to ask about.

Cottonwood Creek runs 3.81 nurse hours per resident day, just under the national average, and weekends dip about 11% below its own weekday staffing. That gap matters because weekday coverage isn't the hard part. Turnover sits at 42.2%, better than the 45.8% national figure, and the inspection record is clean where it counts: none of the 23 deficiencies involve harm or abuse, and the most recent inspection was February 2025. The split in CMS's ratings is worth noticing, though, four stars on health inspections and three on staffing, but two on quality measures, which reflects how residents' clinical outcomes are tracking. For-profit partnership ownership. A reasonable option, with staffing consistency the thing to watch.

Shawn Manor runs on noticeably thin nursing hours, 3.02 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and its weekend coverage doesn't drop off from there, which is one small point in its favor. Staff turnover sits right at the national average of 45.8%, so retention isn't the standout problem here. What stands out is the inspection record: 22 deficiencies, four serious enough to put residents in harm's way and five tied to abuse. The last full inspection was in November 2024, so that record is recent. Strong marks on health inspections and quality measures sit alongside a two-star staffing picture, which is the tension worth understanding before deciding.

Southern Oaks runs about 11% leaner on nurse staffing than the national average, 3.44 hours per resident day, and weekend coverage barely drops from weekday levels, which is at least consistent. The bigger number is turnover: 53.3% of staff leaving annually, against a national average of 45.8%, which matters over time because it's hard to keep consistent caregivers around residents. On the regulatory side, the home has 15 deficiencies on its current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. Fines total $3,174. Its last inspection was in March 2026, so the picture is recent. A four-star health inspection rating is the strongest piece of this profile; staffing and quality measures sit in the middle.

Forest Hills runs about 159 certified beds in Broken Arrow under for-profit LLC ownership, and its overall nurse staffing of 4.00 hours per resident day sits just above the national average of 3.86. That margin looks thinner when you notice weekends run roughly 13% below its own weekday staffing, and annual turnover hits 62.8% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning a lot of the people providing care are still learning the building. The current inspection record shows 35 deficiencies, including two tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level. The most recent inspection was May 2025, so the picture is fairly current.

Eufaula Manor runs a hundred certified beds as a for-profit corporation, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.44 hours per resident day, roughly 15% above the national average of 3.86. That's the strongest number in the file. Weekends dip about 5% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins slightly then. The bigger issue is retention: turnover hits 64.3%, well above the 45.8% national figure, which means new faces cycle through fairly often. On inspections, 14 deficiencies sit on the current record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent visit in August 2024. Quality measures score 2 out of 5 stars. Staffing is decent; consistency and clinical outcomes are where the gaps show.

Heritage Skilled Nursing and Therapy runs 100 certified beds in Tecumseh under for-profit LLC ownership, and its inspectors have found it solid on care quality, a four-star health inspection rating and no deficiencies at the harm or jeopardy level, with none tied to abuse. The staffing numbers tell a different story. At 3.57 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 8% under the national average, and weekends dip another 8% below its own weekday levels. Annual turnover of 60% is well above the 45.8% national figure, which matters for how consistently residents see the same caregivers. A recent March 2025 inspection helps, but the 27 deficiencies on record still add up.

Seminole Care and Rehabilitation Center runs 106 beds under corporate ownership, and its staffing numbers tell two different stories. Total nurse coverage sits at 4.16 hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average, which sounds good until you notice weekends drop about 18% below the home's own weekday level, the hours are there, just not evenly. Staff turnover is the bigger concern at 59.3% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning well over half the nursing staff leaves each year. The inspection record shows 22 deficiencies, none at harm level but one tied to abuse, with the last visit in September 2024. Clinical quality measures score well; consistent hands are the open question.

Ada Care Center runs about 3.39 nurse hours per resident each day, roughly 12% under the national average, and weekends are thinner still, about 9% below its own weekday numbers. That staffing pattern sits behind a 3-star staffing rating and a 2-star quality measure score, even though its 4-star inspection rating looks stronger. The record shows 15 deficiencies, including three at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse. This is an 85-bed for-profit, individually owned home last inspected in February 2025. The inspection result is the bright spot; the day-to-day staffing and quality measures are where the gaps show.
