Inspected within the last 6 months. Data reflects current conditions.
The King's Daughters & Sons Nursing Home in Durant, Oklahoma has a Trust Grade of C, indicating it is average and sits in the middle of the pack compared to similar facilities. Its state ranking is #135 out of 282, placing it in the top half of Oklahoma nursing homes, and it ranks #2 out of 5 in Bryan County, meaning only one local option is better. The facility shows improvement, with the number of issues decreasing from 13 in 2024 to just 2 in 2025.
