Shanoan Springs Nursing and Rehabilitation has received a Trust Grade of D, indicating below-average performance with some concerns. They rank #180 out of 282 facilities in Oklahoma, placing them in the bottom half, and #4 out of 5 in Grady County, meaning only one local option is better. The facility is showing signs of improvement, as issues decreased from 15 in 2024 to 2 in 2025. Staffing is rated average with a turnover rate of 71%, which is concerning compared to the state average of 55%, indicating challenges in retaining staff. While the facility has no fines on record, which is a positive sign, there have been some serious concerns, such as a staff member failing to wash their hands after handling trash and a resident being inappropriately restrained during a shower. Overall, while there are strengths in the facility’s compliance with fines and a trend toward improvement, families should be aware of the serious incidents and high turnover rates.
