State Inspection Record

Oklahoma inspects every assisted living and memory care community on a regular schedule, plus any time a complaint comes in. Inspectors are state employees, not part of this site — what follows is what they found, in their own words.

Built by Paul Swales, a senior placement advisor, from Oklahoma State Department of Health inspection records — not from reviews. Assisted living and memory care have no federal star rating.

What state inspectors found

1 inspection in the last two years · 1 with no deficiencies cited · 1 with findings

Chapters Living of Tulsa was inspected in March 2025 alongside five complaint investigations, and three citations were issued. The most consequential concern abuse reporting: a November 2023 allegation that a certified nurse aide struck a resident in the head with a water bottle was never reported to the Oklahoma State Department of Health or to the Nurse Aide Registry. The administrator told surveyors she did not believe unsubstantiated allegations had to be reported, that no witness statements were collected, that the resident was never asked what happened, and that the aide was never suspended and was still working at the facility on the day of the survey. The kitchen was also cited for not serving the complete lunch approved by the registered dietitian - the culinary director said dessert had not been served for as long as she had worked there. On the other side of the ledger, surveyors watched for signs of abuse throughout the two-day visit and noted staff were always interacting with residents, found every exit door securely locked and code-controlled when investigating an elopement complaint, and heard from family representatives that the facility notifies them of changes in condition and that they had no concerns about abuse or neglect. A follow-up review on May 5, 2025 confirmed the center was back in substantial compliance.

  • During the two-day inspection, surveyors watched residents for any signs of abuse and noted that staff were consistently engaged with the residents. 03-06-2025
  • A complaint claimed exit doors were not secure and a resident could wander out. Surveyors checked the doors throughout the visit and found them all securely locked, with entry and exit only by code - the surveyor had to have an employee key in a code just to get into the building. 03-06-2025
  • In the elopement investigation, the state noted the facility had already suspended and then terminated the employee involved because of the risk to residents' safety. 03-06-2025
  • When surveyors interviewed families about a complaint that the center was not telling them about changes in their loved one's medications, the families said the facility does notify them of changes in condition and that they had no concerns about abuse or neglect. 03-06-2025
Show all 5 findings
  • The center corrected everything it was cited for. A follow-up review on May 5, 2025 found Chapters Living of Tulsa back in substantial compliance. 03-06-2025

What the state also noted

  • This was not a clean survey. Three deficiencies were cited on 03/06/2025: incomplete dietitian-approved meals, which the state found was a pattern affecting several residents; failure to report an abuse allegation to OSDH, isolated to one or a few residents; and failure to notify the Nurse Aide Registry, also isolated to one or a few residents.
  • Only one survey (03/06/2025) plus its revisit is included here, so there is no earlier inspection in this bundle to compare against for a trend.
  • The center failed to report a November 2023 allegation - that a certified nurse aide hit a resident in the head with a water bottle and laughed - to the Oklahoma State Department of Health, and separately failed to notify the Nurse Aide Registry. The administrator told surveyors she did not believe she had to report allegations she considered unsubstantiated and "did not think it was an allegation."
  • In that same matter, the administrator stated no witness statements were collected, the resident was never asked what happened, and the aide involved "was never suspended and was currently working at facility" at the time of the survey.
  • The documents describe only the facility's own internal conclusion that the water-bottle allegation was unsubstantiated - a conclusion reached without witness statements or interviewing the resident. The state's citations were for the failure to report; these documents do not state OSDH's own conclusion about whether abuse occurred. Families should NOT read the absence of an abuse citation as the state clearing the incident.
  • The elopement complaint was not merely an unfounded claim: the investigation report references a State Reportable Incident and an employee who was suspended and then terminated "due to the risk of the residents safety." The documents do not describe what happened or whether a resident actually exited the building.
  • Residents were not receiving the complete dietitian-approved lunch: the kitchen culinary director said dessert had not been served for as long as she had worked there, affecting 6 of 8 sampled residents, and did not know who made that decision.
  • The OSDH investigative reports do not label any complaint substantiated or unsubstantiated, and the Statement of Deficiencies does not map citations to individual complaint numbers, so no count of substantiated complaints can be drawn from these documents.
  • OCR noise: one investigative report renders complaint #OK00067618 as "OK0006718," and one page header renders the street address as "1807 S Mingo Rd" instead of 7807. These are scanning artifacts, not discrepancies in the record.

My help finding the right community costs your family nothing.

You never pay me — the community pays my fee, and only if someone I introduce moves in. And one person calls you back: me, not a call center.

  • The price above is not the price you’ll pay. Care-level charges, community fees, medication management and second-person fees all stack on top of that base rate. I’ll walk you through what this community really charges for someone in your loved one’s situation — and push to get the move-in fee and deposit reduced.
  • Whether they have a room, and would take your loved one. I’ll find out what’s actually open right now and whether they’d genuinely accept this level of care, before you spend a morning touring.
  • How it compares to the others nearby. I hold the same state record for every community in the metro. Their sales office will never tell you the place four miles away has a cleaner history.

Call me before you contact a single community.One conversation usually saves a family weeks, and costs you nothing — here’s why, and how I get paid.
Paul Swales, Senior Placement Advisor at Oklahoma Senior Placement

I’m Paul Swales, and this is what I do all day. A senior placement advisor is the person who finds the right community for your family and does the hard part for you. I’ve read the state health department’s inspection record on every community in this metro. I know which ones will genuinely take your loved one’s level of care, and I make the calls — so you’re not doing this alone at eleven at night on your phone.

It works like a buyer’s agent in real estate. Your family never pays me. The community pays my fee, and only if someone I introduce actually moves in. There’s no cost to your family and no obligation to keep using me.

The one catch is the order. They only pay my fee if I introduce you before you contact them yourself. Call them first and you’re a walk-in — I can’t step in as your advocate after that. It costs your family nothing either way. It only decides whether you have someone on your side.
