MONROE MANOR
Within standard 12-15 month inspection cycle. Federal law requires annual inspections.
Monroe Manor in Jay, Oklahoma has received a Trust Grade of F, indicating poor performance with significant concerns regarding care. Ranked #246 out of 282 facilities in Oklahoma, it falls in the bottom half, and is the lowest-ranked option in Delaware County. The facility's situation is worsening, with issues increasing from 2 in 2023 to 15 in 2024, and staffing is a major concern with a turnover rate of 74%, much higher than the state average of 55%. Additionally, the facility has incurred $31,773 in fines, which is higher than 80% of Oklahoma facilities, signaling ongoing compliance issues. Specific incidents include a critical failure to provide appropriate tracheostomy care, resulting in a life-threatening situation, and serious lapses in monitoring and treating a resident's pain after a fall, as well as inadequate diabetic care for another resident. While the RN coverage is average, the overall high level of fines and low staffing ratings raise red flags for families considering this facility.

About This Facility
What is Monroe Manor's CMS Rating?
CMS assigns MONROE MANOR an overall rating of 1 out of 5 stars, which is considered much below average nationally. Within Oklahoma, this rating places the facility higher than 0% of the state's 100 nursing homes. A rating at this level reflects concerns identified through health inspections, staffing assessments, or quality measures that families should carefully consider.
How is Monroe Manor Staffed?
CMS rates MONROE MANOR's staffing level at 1 out of 5 stars, which is much below average compared to other nursing homes. Staff turnover is 74%, which is 28 percentage points above the Oklahoma average of 46%. High turnover can affect care consistency as new staff learn residents' individual needs.
What Have Inspectors Found at Monroe Manor?
State health inspectors documented 18 deficiencies at MONROE MANOR during 2021 to 2024. These included: 1 Immediate Jeopardy (the most serious level, indicating potential for serious harm or death), 2 that caused actual resident harm, and 15 with potential for harm. Immediate Jeopardy findings are rare and represent the most serious regulatory concerns. They require immediate corrective action.
Who Owns and Operates Monroe Manor?
MONROE MANOR is owned by a for-profit company. For-profit facilities operate as businesses with obligations to shareholders or private owners. The facility is operated by GLOBAL HEALTHCARE REIT, a chain that manages multiple nursing homes. With 98 certified beds and approximately 38 residents (about 39% occupancy), it is a smaller facility located in JAY, Oklahoma.
How Does Monroe Manor Compare to Other Oklahoma Nursing Homes?
Compared to the 100 nursing homes in Oklahoma, MONROE MANOR's overall rating (1 stars) is below the state average of 2.6, staff turnover (74%) is significantly higher than the state average of 46%, and health inspection rating (2 stars) is below the national benchmark.
What Should Families Ask When Visiting Monroe Manor?
Based on this facility's data, families visiting should ask: "What changes have been made since the serious inspection findings, and how are you preventing similar issues?" "How do you ensure continuity of care given staff turnover, and what is your staff retention strategy?" "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?" These questions are particularly relevant given the facility's Immediate Jeopardy citations, the facility's high staff turnover rate, and the below-average staffing rating.
Is Monroe Manor Safe?
Based on CMS inspection data, MONROE MANOR has documented safety concerns. Inspectors have issued 1 Immediate Jeopardy citation (the most serious violation level indicating risk of serious injury or death). The facility has a 1-star overall rating and ranks #100 of 100 nursing homes in Oklahoma. Families considering this facility should ask detailed questions about what corrective actions have been taken since these incidents.
Do Nurses at Monroe Manor Stick Around?
Staff turnover at MONROE MANOR is high. At 74%, the facility is 28 percentage points above the Oklahoma average of 46%. 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 Monroe Manor Ever Fined?
MONROE MANOR has been fined $31,773 across 2 penalty actions. This is below the Oklahoma average of $33,397. While any fine indicates a compliance issue, fines under $50,000 are relatively common and typically reflect isolated problems that were subsequently corrected. Families should ask what specific issues led to these fines and confirm they've been resolved.
Is Monroe Manor on Any Federal Watch List?
MONROE MANOR 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.
