Iris Memory Care of Edmond is a residential memory care community at 2424 NW 178th St in Edmond, dedicated exclusively to Alzheimer's and dementia care as a home-like alternative to traditional assisted living. The community is built as two separate buildings, each housing a maximum of 20 residents, so that individuals with memory loss live in small, intimate settings. From the front door it is designed to feel like a single-family home, complete with familiar sights, soothing sounds, and homey aromas, and an open-concept gourmet kitchen encourages community engagement.
Certified care staff are on-site 24 hours a day with an on-site nurse, and the community maintains higher staff-to-resident ratios than typical assisted living. Services include medication management, personal assistance with bathing, dressing and grooming, incontinence care, mobility and transfer assistance, and three chef-prepared, dietitian-approved meals daily. Private suites feature granite bathrooms, custom tile showers, hardwood-like flooring, and calming wall colors. Enrichment includes a full-service salon, game and activity room, covered porches, courtyards with circular walking paths, Snoezelen therapy, and pet therapy, all within a secured, access-controlled environment.
Care levels, room types and features at Iris Memory Care Of Edmond. Not sure which of these your loved one actually needs? That’s where I can help — most families are guessing at this part, and guessing wrong is expensive.
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.
5 inspections in the last two years · 4 with no deficiencies cited · 1 with findings
Over the past two years Oklahoma inspectors visited Iris Memory Care of Edmond five times, and four of those visits ended with no deficiencies cited — including both 2026 visits. Complaints about abuse, falls, dignity, elopement, skin care and staffing were investigated and not sustained, and the May 2025 licensing inspection found the building clean and odor free with enough staff to meet residents' needs. There is one serious exception. In December 2025 the state cited the community after reviewing video of a March 15, 2025 incident: a resident with dementia slid out of bed at 5:47 a.m. and was not helped up until 6:24 a.m. — about 37 minutes. The video showed the aide who came in at 5:48 a.m. did not respond when the resident said 'Can you help,' turned off the bed alarm, was on their phone, provided incontinence care while the resident lay on the floor, and left the room; by 6:18 a.m. the resident was screaming for help and another resident went to find staff. Only one aide was assigned to that building overnight, and the director of nursing confirmed the facility did not call emergency services for lifting assistance. The community retrained all staff on fall response and the state verified in a January 28, 2026 revisit that the deficiency was corrected. The two inspections since then, in January and April 2026, found nothing wrong.

Every inspection Oklahoma has on record for this community. The rating is based on the last 2 years, so a community is not scored on something it corrected long ago — but the older record is here to read either way.

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.
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.
