MID-DEL SKILLED NURSING AND THERAPY
Within standard 12-15 month inspection cycle. Federal law requires annual inspections.
Mid-Del Skilled Nursing and Therapy in Del City, Oklahoma, has a Trust Grade of B+, which indicates it is recommended and above average in quality. It ranks #64 out of 282 facilities in Oklahoma, placing it in the top half, and #5 out of 39 in Oklahoma County, meaning only a few local options are better. However, the facility is currently worsening, with the number of issues increasing from 2 in 2023 to 4 in 2025. Staffing is a positive aspect, with a 4 out of 5 star rating and a turnover rate of 51%, which is below the state average, suggesting that staff members tend to stay longer and provide consistent care. While it has no fines on record, indicating compliance with regulations, there have been specific concerns such as failing to obtain a physician's order for oxygen for a resident and not consistently assessing a dialysis resident before and after treatment, which could potentially harm the residents involved. Overall, while there are strengths in staffing and lack of fines, families should be aware of the increasing number of issues and specific incidents that could impact care quality.
