Position within OK

6 citations — more than 35% of the 283 certified nursing homes in OK. Compared within OK rather than nationally because which state a facility is in explains about 30% of the variation in citation counts between facilities, while bed count explains under 1%. State survey agencies differ far more than the buildings do. How this is calculated

Holding steadyabout the same at the latest survey as at its earlier surveys in the window.

The latest survey found 3 citations; the earlier surveys in the window averaged 1.5. With 3 surveys on file this is a direction of travel, not a conclusion.

When is the next survey likely?

Well past the typical window (November 2025 to February 2026), and past the point by which nine in ten OK facilities have been surveyed. This facility’s last Life Safety survey was October 2024. Facilities in OK are typically surveyed 14–16 months after the last one (median 15), measured over 277 consecutive surveys in the last two years of CMS records.

A range the record supports, not a prediction of a date. State agencies vary widely — from about 11 months in Pennsylvania to three years in Maryland. How the window is measured
