BINGER NURSING AND REHABILITATION
Within standard 12-15 month inspection cycle. Federal law requires annual inspections.
Binger Nursing and Rehabilitation has a Trust Grade of C, which means it is average and sits in the middle of the pack among nursing homes. It ranks #151 out of 282 facilities in Oklahoma, placing it in the bottom half, and #3 out of 3 in Caddo County, indicating only one other local option is better. The facility's performance has been stable, with a consistent number of issues reported over the last two years. Staffing is a notable weakness, rated at only 1 out of 5 stars with a turnover of 56%, which is about average for the state. While there are no fines on record, which is a positive sign, there are concerns with RN coverage being lower than 93% of other facilities, suggesting limited nursing oversight. Specific incidents noted by inspectors include a failure to provide appropriate handwashing water temperatures for residents, which could affect their comfort and hygiene, and a lack of privacy during enteral nutrition administration for multiple residents, compromising their dignity. Additionally, routine laboratory tests were missed for a resident, potentially impacting their health management. Overall, while there are some strengths, such as no fines and decent health inspection ratings, the staffing issues and specific care concerns warrant careful consideration for families researching this facility.

"Can you walk me through typical staffing levels on day, evening, and night shifts?" "Can I visit during a mealtime to observe dining assistance and food quality?" "How do you handle medical emergencies, and what is your hospital transfer rate?" These questions are particularly relevant given the facility's high staff turnover rate and the below-average staffing rating.
Is Binger Nursing And Rehabilitation Safe?

Do Nurses at Binger Nursing And Rehabilitation Stick Around?
Staff turnover at BINGER NURSING AND REHABILITATION is high. At 56%, the facility is 10 percentage points above the Oklahoma average of 46%. Registered Nurse turnover is particularly concerning at 83%. RNs handle complex medical decisions and coordinate care — frequent RN changes can directly impact care quality. High turnover means new staff may not know residents' individual needs, medications, or preferences. It can also be disorienting for residents, especially those with dementia who rely on familiar faces. Families should ask: What is causing the turnover? What retention programs are in place? How do you ensure care continuity during staff transitions?
Was Binger Nursing And Rehabilitation Ever Fined?
BINGER NURSING AND REHABILITATION has no federal fines on record. CMS issues fines when nursing homes fail to meet care standards or don't correct problems found during inspections. The absence of fines suggests the facility has either maintained compliance or corrected any issues before penalties were assessed. This is a positive indicator, though families should still review recent inspection reports for the full picture.
Is Binger Nursing And Rehabilitation on Any Federal Watch List?
BINGER NURSING AND REHABILITATION is not on any federal watch list. The most significant is the Special Focus Facility (SFF) program, which identifies the bottom 1% of nursing homes nationally based on persistent, serious quality problems. Not being on this list means the facility has avoided the pattern of deficiencies that triggers enhanced federal oversight. This is a positive indicator, though families should still review the facility's inspection history directly.
