A repeated citation can merit attention, but context and corrective action must be reviewed before drawing a conclusion.

   Inspectors cited F758 in December 2021, August 2023 and December 2024. This citation covers how psychotropic drugs are used, including dose reductions and limits on as-needed orders.

Bring these to the tour. Each one comes from something in the record; the reason is under the question.

1. 01

   How many residents take psychotropic medications, and how often are doses reviewed for reduction?

   Psychotropic Medications: cited in three inspections, most seriously at level E.

2. 02

   How often are care plans revised, and who takes part in the review?

   Care Plan Timing and Review: cited in two inspections, most seriously at level E.

3. 03

   May we see the kitchen, and what do your own sanitation checks look like week to week?

   Kitchen and Food Safety: cited in two inspections, most seriously at level F.

4. 04

   How many nurses and aides are on each shift, including nights and weekends, for the unit we are considering?

   No staffing citation appears in this window. Staffing levels are published separately by CMS and are worth asking about directly.

5. 05

   What led to the 2026 fine, and has it been paid?

   A $9,269 civil money penalty was imposed January 12, 2026. CMS publishes the fine, not whether it has been paid.

Inspection results and penalties are published by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services from surveys conducted by the Oklahoma state survey agency.
