Overview

Park Place Healthcare and Rehab has received a Trust Grade of F, which indicates significant concerns about the quality of care provided. In terms of ranking, they do not appear in the state or county rankings, suggesting they may not be competitive with other facilities in Oklahoma. The facility is reportedly improving, as the number of issues decreased from 22 in 2024 to 8 in 2025. However, staffing is a major weakness, with a troubling turnover rate of 90%, far exceeding the state average of 55%, and they have received $261,349 in fines, higher than 98% of other facilities in Oklahoma. Specific incidents raise serious alarm, such as a resident with schizophrenia not receiving their prescribed medications for several days, which is a critical violation. Additionally, another resident with diabetes did not receive their diabetic medication for two consecutive months, indicating severe lapses in care. While there is some positive movement in reducing issues, the overall environment and past incidents suggest families should proceed with caution.
