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.

Past findings — state verified corrections, clean inspections since

The state cited an immediate jeopardy — its most serious level — in this community’s recent record. The state verified the corrections, and 1 later inspection found no deficiencies at all.

What state inspectors found

3 inspections in the last two years · 1 with no deficiencies cited · 2 with findings

Crystal Place had a serious 2025, and families should read the state's own reports before deciding. In June 2025 inspectors cited the facility at the highest severity level after a resident with diabetes was found unresponsive with insulin pens and about five needles in his bed and later died at the hospital, and in the same survey cited neglect of a 97-year-old resident who was left saturated in urine overnight. There are real positives: an April 2025 inspection found the meals, food choices and cleanliness of the building in good shape and did not confirm complaints about unsafe staff assistance, and a July 2025 complaint investigation that re-examined monitoring, self-administration of medicines and daily care closed with no deficiencies cited. The facility removed the immediate danger within about 27 hours. But recovery was not quick: the state rejected the facility's first correction plan over medication-cart training, an August 20, 2025 revisit found a medication cart again left unlocked and unattended with two vials of insulin inside and recorded the June deficiencies as still uncorrected, and the state did not certify correction until September 19, 2025 - roughly three months after the death. Medication security is a fair and important question to press on a tour.

  • A complaint investigation on July 10, 2025 — which looked specifically at whether the facility was monitoring residents, training people to take their own medicines, and helping dependent residents with daily care — ended with no deficiencies cited. 07-10-2025
  • During that July 2025 visit the surveyor watched staff actually providing hands-on personal care, reviewed charts, physician's orders, medication lists and care plans, and interviewed residents, staff and families, and concluded the center was following the rules. 07-10-2025
  • When inspectors identified an immediate danger in June 2025, the facility acted the same day — insulin was removed from residents' apartments and stored in the facility medication room, a written self-administration policy was adopted, every resident who took their own medicines was re-assessed and re-tested, and all staff were trained — and the state lifted the immediate-jeopardy finding about 27 hours later after verifying each step. 06-19-2025
  • The June 2025 deficiencies were eventually corrected, though it took two revisits: an August 20, 2025 revisit found them still uncorrected, and an off-site paper revisit on October 1, 2025 found the facility in substantial compliance, with correction dated effective September 19, 2025. 06-19-2025
Show all 8 findings
  • In April 2025 the state investigated a complaint that residents were being hurt during staff assistance and did not confirm it — no injuries turned up in the records or interviews, residents said they had not been hurt, and surveyors saw staff working safely. 04-11-2025
  • Complaints about the food were also investigated in April 2025 and not sustained. Surveyors found an alternative menu with eight other options, appropriate portions and nutrition, a pleasant aroma at mealtime, and residents who ate most or all of their meals without complaint. 04-11-2025
  • Surveyors also checked whether the building was safe, clean and comfortable and found that it was, both in residents' apartments and in the shared areas, and residents said they were happy with the cleaning. 04-11-2025
  • The problems found in April 2025 were fixed. A follow-up review on May 7, 2025 confirmed the facility was back in substantial compliance. 04-11-2025

What the state also noted

  • The same June 2025 survey cited neglect with actual harm to one resident: a 97-year-old resident who required staff help to toilet was observed saturated with urine from shins to neck with soiled bedding, and staff confirmed no one had assisted the resident to the bathroom between roughly 9:30 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. The resident told the surveyor this happened 'nearly every morning.'
  • The June 2025 survey also cited a missed annual comprehensive assessment, missing weekly medication counts required by residents' service contracts, an incident report not transmitted to the state within one business day because the administrator mis-keyed the fax number, and an unlocked, unattended medication cart plus an unlocked medication storage room.
  • Complaint OK00083544, investigated with the June 2025 survey, was substantiated on two grounds: the state concluded 'the center failed to secure medications and prevent a resident from causing self harm.' Complaint OK00083530 was likewise substantiated for failure to secure medications.
  • Complaint OK00079607 was investigated with the June 2025 survey but the bundle does not separately describe its outcome, so the substantiated-complaint count is a minimum.
  • The June 19, 2025 complaint survey cited an Immediate Jeopardy — the state's most serious level — for medication administration: the center had no self-administration policy, five insulin pens were found unsecured in a resident's unlocked apartment refrigerator, and a resident with type 2 diabetes was found unresponsive with a blood sugar of 23 and two insulin pens plus about five needles in his bed; he died at the hospital.
  • OSDH rejected the facility's first plan of correction for the June survey. A July 16, 2025 letter states the plan 'is not acceptable' because, on the medication storage and security rule, 'There is no remedy to ensure the medication aides are trained appropriately to keep medication carts locked.'
  • An August 20, 2025 revisit again found an unattended, unlocked medication cart containing two vials of insulin, about two months after the June death, with a resident sitting roughly eight feet away. OSDH's cover letter states these deficiencies 'remain uncorrected from our original investigation conducted June 19, 2025,' and the state did not certify correction until September 19, 2025.
  • The April 11, 2025 licensure and complaint survey cited six deficiencies, including two unlocked medication carts with medications and resident MAR/HIPAA information left visible on unlocked computers, no bed-rail risk agreement for a resident with Alzheimer's, a missing significant-change assessment, a resident record that could not be produced, and missing 2024 incident reports.
  • Three different administrators are named on correspondence across the 2025 surveys (Regina Herring in April, Carrie Elmore in early July, Leah Bell from mid-July onward), which suggests leadership turnover during this period. A DON interviewed in April said 'I just started working here.'
  • Portions of the scanned plan-of-correction pages are mirrored and garbled in the OCR; the survey letters, investigative reports and deficiency statements themselves are legible and are the basis for everything above.

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.
