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 findings

When the state visited Chisholm Trail in October 2025, it was investigating three complaints at once - about abuse, medications not being given as ordered, and pests. Over three days surveyors watched meals, medication passes, activities and hands-on care, interviewed residents and staff about abuse and medications, and reviewed grievance logs, resident council minutes and pest control invoices; none of those allegations resulted in a citation. Two deficiencies were cited, both involving resident assessments - the documents that set out what care a resident needs. One resident's admission assessment was never signed or coordinated by a nurse or physician; a second resident, admitted with a fractured right femur, osteoporosis and a history of falls, had no admission assessment that staff could locate at all; and yearly reassessments were late or never completed for two of ten residents reviewed. The facility retrained its nursing leadership and reviewed resident charts, and the state confirmed in writing on December 5, 2025 that the deficiencies had been corrected effective December 1, 2025.

  • An abuse complaint was investigated over three days in October 2025. Surveyors interviewed numerous residents about abuse of any type, asked residents how they would report it, and questioned staff about preventing, identifying and reporting abuse. No abuse-related deficiency was cited. 10-08-2025
  • Surveyors watched ordinary daily life in the building rather than only reading files - residents at meals, during medication passes, during treatments, taking part in activities, and receiving hands-on help with dressing, bathing and other daily care. 10-08-2025
  • Staff were specifically watched for how they treated residents, and no finding about dignity, respect or resident treatment was cited. 10-08-2025
  • Two separate complaints alleged medications were not given as the doctor ordered. Surveyors reviewed medication administration records, physician orders, care plans and assessments, and interviewed numerous residents and staff about medications. No medication deficiency was cited. 10-08-2025
Show all 8 findings
  • A complaint about pest control was investigated. Surveyors reviewed the pest control invoices, walked resident rooms, the dining room and common areas, and asked residents directly about bed bugs or other pests. No pest control deficiency was cited. 10-08-2025
  • Incident reports, grievance logs, resident council minutes, staff in-service training records and facility policies were all reviewed, and none of these areas produced a citation. 10-08-2025
  • The two problems that were found did not stay open. The state conducted a revisit on December 5, 2025 and confirmed in writing that the deficiencies had been corrected effective December 1, 2025. 10-08-2025
  • The facility responded to the assessment findings with staff retraining, documenting an in-service with the director of nursing to review admission and annual assessment policies, and reviewing existing resident charts for missing documentation. 10-08-2025

What the state also noted

  • The December 5, 2025 letter states that 'a revisit was conducted' and that the deficiencies were corrected effective 12/01/2025. The letter does not say whether the revisit was on site or an offsite paper review, so no on-site verification should be claimed.
  • The facility's first plan of correction was rejected by the state because the proposed correction date of December 31, 2025 fell outside the required 60-day window; a revised plan was then accepted on 11/12/2025.
  • The facility's own correction evidence is internally inconsistent: the plan of correction and the in-service handout are dated 10/15/2025, but the attached in-service attendance sheet is dated 08/15/2025 - roughly two months before the survey. The attendance names and times are blank or unreadable in the scan.
  • This survey was not deficiency-free. Two citations were issued on 10/08/2025. The first, under the admission assessment rule and isolated to one or a few residents, was for an admission assessment not signed or coordinated by an RN or physician for one resident and a missing admission assessment for another (2 of 10 reviewed). The second, under the annual assessment rule and a pattern affecting several residents, was for annual comprehensive assessments that were late or not completed for 2 of 10 sampled residents. Assessments drive the care plan, so these are not trivial paperwork items even though no resident harm was described.
  • Only one survey (10/08/2025) falls within the 24-month window, so no trend over time can be shown.
  • The resident with no locatable admission assessment (Resident #6) was admitted 08/20/25 with a nondisplaced fracture of the right femur, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoporosis and a history of falls - a high fall-risk profile admitted without a documented assessment on file.
  • The survey packet contains two forms with conflicting summary lines - one stating 'No deficiencies were cited' and another stating 'Deficiencies were cited as a result of the survey.' Because the accompanying State Form lists two citations and the enforcement letters confirm deficiencies were identified, this was counted as a cited survey, not a clean one.
  • The complaint investigation reports do not state in words whether each allegation was substantiated. The count of zero substantiated complaints is based on the fact that neither citation relates to abuse, medication administration, self-determination, or pest control.
  • One page at the end of this bundle belongs to a different facility (AL1412, Village on the Park - Oklahoma City) and was excluded from this review.

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.

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.
