About

The Commons is a Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC) in Enid whose approach centers on enhancing the lives of those it serves by nurturing physical, emotional, and spiritual needs. The assisted living apartments are designed for moderately independent seniors who may need some nursing care and medical oversight, in a supportive environment emphasizing friendship, wellness, and peace of mind.

Residents live in private apartments with kitchenettes, full bathrooms, and closet space, and receive assistance with medication management, nutrition, mobility, and personal care. A full continuum of care means residents can age in place without relocating, moving between independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled rehabilitation as needs change, with a month-to-month flexible lease and full housekeeping included.

  • Care levels: Independent Living, Assisted Living, Memory Care, Skilled Nursing, Respite/Short-Term

What state inspectors found

1 inspection in the last two years · 1 with findings

This 35-bed community in Enid had one inspection in the last two years, in November 2025, combining a relicensure survey with a complaint investigation, and the state cited two deficiencies - so the record is not spotless. One of them is more than paperwork: a resident prescribed Lyrica three times a day for nerve pain had four scheduled doses recorded as not given in June 2025 (three with no reason written down, one noted as held for behaviors), and the facility's own care coordinator told the surveyor the medication should not have been held for a resident with a pain diagnosis and that the record showed no other pain medication was given instead. The second citation was that two of eight sampled residents had not had their annual assessment completed on time. On the positive side, the complaint also alleged medications were not stored safely, and after checking the medication carts, medication room, resident rooms and dining areas, surveyors cited nothing for storage; staff were observed giving medications and helping residents; and the resident involved told the surveyor they had no concerns about their pain medication. The state accepted a correction plan that includes daily medication-record audits and quality-committee monitoring for two quarters, and an offsite paper revisit on December 12, 2025 found the facility back in substantial compliance effective December 9, 2025. Families may want to ask how the facility now documents and reviews any held medication.

  • The state conducted a follow-up review a few weeks later and determined the November deficiencies had been corrected, with the facility in substantial compliance. 12-12-2025
  • The complaint included an allegation that medications were not stored safely. Surveyors checked resident halls and rooms, the medication carts, the medication room and the dining rooms for medication storage, and no medication-storage deficiency was cited. 11-20-2025
  • Surveyors watched staff give medications and help residents with their needs during the three-day visit. 11-20-2025
  • The resident whose medication records were questioned told the surveyor they had no concerns about their pain medication. 11-20-2025
Show all 6 findings
  • Both findings were isolated within the records reviewed: one of eight sampled residents was affected by the medication finding, and two of eight were missing an up-to-date annual assessment. 11-20-2025
  • The facility's written fix was accepted by the state and included daily medication-record audits, a tracking log of assessment due dates, and quality-committee monitoring for two quarters after the correction date. 11-20-2025

What the state also noted

  • Two deficiencies were cited at the 11-20-2025 survey: under the resident assessment rule, annual comprehensive assessments not completed on time for 2 of 8 sampled residents (one overdue since 08/2025, one since 09/2025); and under the medication rule, a prescribed nerve-pain medication (Lyrica 25 mg three times daily) recorded as not given on four occasions in June 2025 - three with no reason documented and one held for behaviors - with no record the resident received any other pain medication at those times.
  • The medication finding is a medication-administration failure, not only a records issue: the care coordinator confirmed the medication should not have been held for a resident with a pain diagnosis, and a 06/11/25 '24 hour report sheet on watch' recorded reports of difficulty/pain for that resident.
  • Both citations were scoped as isolated - touching one or a few residents - with the potential for more than minimal harm, and the state's letter noted the deficiencies represented the potential for more than minimal harm, with penalties to apply retroactive to November 20, 2025 if not corrected by revisit.
  • The medication-orders portion of the complaint (#OK00084910) resulted in a citation; only the medication-storage allegation produced no citation. The investigative report does not use the words substantiated or unsubstantiated.
  • The revisit confirming compliance was an offsite/paper review rather than an on-site inspection, so no surveyor observed the corrections in person.
  • This bundle covers the 24-month window only; the bundle header notes 2 surveys in 3 years, and the earlier survey is not included here.

Call me before you call them. Once you contact the community directly, they treat you as a walk-in — and I usually can't step in as your advocate anymore.
