Nursing homes across Seminole County, Oklahoma, graded on the federal inspection
record, nurse staffing and staff turnover. County rank is shown on each home's profile.
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.
Seminole Pioneer Nursing Home runs 110 certified beds under individual for-profit ownership, and the inspection record is where the concern sits. Thirty-three deficiencies on the current record, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, with $228,591 in fines across two penalties, that's a serious paper trail for a single home. Staffing tells a similar story: one star out of five, well below what residents need day to day. The quality measure score of four stars looks better on paper, but it's built on reported clinical data, not on how many hands are actually available at the bedside. The most recent inspection was November 2024, so this isn't stale history.
Elmwood Manor runs 46 beds in Wewoka under for-profit LLC ownership, and its last health inspection in October 2024 left a serious paper trail: 34 deficiencies on the current record, three of them serious enough to cause harm or place residents in jeopardy, and four tied to abuse. That inspection history is why CMS gives the place one star for health inspections even though its staffing and quality measure scores look better on paper.
The staffing picture is mixed rather than reassuring. Nurse coverage sits at 3.80 hours per resident day, just under the national average, but weekend staffing runs roughly 13% below the home's own weekday level, so care thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 48.8% tops the national rate, meaning the aides and nurses you meet may not be there long.
Wewoka Healthcare Center runs on 3.33 nurse hours per resident day, about 14 percent under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 6 percent below its own weekday staffing. That thinner coverage lands on a workforce where 77 percent of staff turn over each year, well above the 45.8 percent national figure. The inspection record is the harder part: 73 deficiencies, 11 serious enough to put residents in harm's way, 14 tied to abuse, and $389,250 in federal fines. CMS has placed the home in its Special Focus Facility program, which is reserved for homes with a persistent pattern of poor care. The most recent inspection was March 5, 2026.
