About

Glenhaven Retirement Village sits on a ten-acre rural property in Chickasha, Oklahoma, roughly half a mile west of Southern Plains Medical Center and Grady Memorial Hospital. The community describes its peaceful rural setting as an atmosphere for gracious and meaningful living during the retirement years, and operates under the tagline 'Caring From The Heart.'

Glenhaven is a Medicare- and Medicaid-approved organization providing a continuum that includes skilled nursing, rehabilitation and long-term care in addition to its retirement village and assisted living. The assisted living program is presented as a 'new home away from home' for residents who need facility-based support, though detailed assisted-living service and amenity information was not published on the site at the time of review.

OSP RatingOSP FairHow we rate: the OSP Rating is built from this community’s Oklahoma State Department of Health (OSDH) survey history — weighing how recent, how frequent, and how serious the state’s inspection findings are. (Assisted living has no federal star rating, so we base it on the state’s public survey record.)

Faira solid, generally acceptable record, with a few state findings worth a quick question.

📞Often nothing to worry about. The state’s findings are summarized below — call Paul if you want help judging whether any of them would matter for your loved one.

Based on Oklahoma state (OSDH) survey history — assisted living and memory care have no federal star rating.

What state inspectors found

1 inspection in the last two years · 1 with findings

Glenhaven's only state inspection in this window — a relicensure survey concluded October 29, 2025 — was not a clean one. Inspectors cited the center for allowing staff to work with residents before their criminal background checks were completed, in two of five employee files reviewed: a medication aide hired April 22, 2025 whose check was not completed until October 28, 2025, the day the surveyor asked for the records, and a nurse aide hired in November 2024 with a check dated December 27, 2024. OSDH classified the deficiency as carrying the potential for more than minimal harm, and the facility's own plan of correction accepts that all 25 residents had the potential to be affected; background screening is a step a family has no way to verify for itself. The remaining three files were in order, the director of nursing told the surveyor an onboarding system is now in place where the previous administrator had none, and the facility states all employees were re-verified on November 14, 2025 with monthly audits — a November 24, 2025 revisit recorded the center back in substantial compliance, though it was an offsite paper review rather than a return visit. This is the only survey on file for the period and it contains no surveyor observations of daily resident care, so there is limited history here either way.

  • Three of the five employee files the surveyor pulled had their background checks completed before the employee started working with residents. 10-29-2025
  • The director of nursing told the surveyor that the facility now has a hiring and onboarding system in place, which it did not have under the previous administrator. 10-29-2025
  • In its plan of correction the facility said all employees on the roster were re-verified on 11/14/2025, with monthly audits until three successful audits and quarterly review thereafter. OSDH accepted the plan and an offsite/paper revisit on November 24, 2025 recorded the facility in substantial compliance. 10-29-2025

What the state also noted

  • This survey was not clean. The citation was for allowing two staff members to work with residents before their criminal background checks were completed. OSDH's letter states the deficiency represented "the potential for more than minimal harm," and the state graded the problem as a pattern rather than an isolated case - a scope the facility's own plan of correction accepts, meaning all residents had the potential to be affected.
  • The gap was substantial in one case: CMA #1 was hired 4/22/25 and the background check was completed 10/28/25, the day the surveyor requested records. CNA #2 was hired 11/2024 with a check completed 12/27/24.
  • This is a hiring-control failure rather than something observed in resident care, but it is a control a family cannot check for itself, and the record for this period contains no clean survey — the single inspection on file produced this citation.
  • The claim that all employees were re-verified and monthly audits started comes from the facility's own plan of correction, not from a surveyor finding. The 11/24/2025 revisit was offsite/paper, so no one confirmed this on site.
  • The DON's statement that an onboarding system is now in place is a staff self-report recorded by the surveyor, not a verified finding.
  • Only one survey exists in the last 24 months, with no complaint investigations, so there is limited history.
  • The document contains no surveyor observations of daily resident care, so no conclusions can be drawn about grooming, meals, activities, or staffing.
