Our read on University Village Retirement Community

University Village in Tulsa runs 4.36 nurse hours per resident per day, about 13% more than the national average, and enough for a top federal staffing rating. Weekend coverage dips roughly 10% below its own weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on a Saturday. Staff turnover sits at 48.1%, slightly worse than the 45.8% national figure. Inspections in December 2024 turned up 15 deficiencies, none involving harm or abuse, which is why the health inspection rating lands mid-range at 3 out of 5 while quality measures score 4. It's for-profit, LLC-owned, 80 beds. Solid staffing carries this one; the inspection record is the soft spot.
