10 Best Nursing Homes in Tulsa, OK

Answer a few questions to get personalized results

Who are you searching for?

Seniors and their families choose Tulsa, Oklahoma, as their retirement haven due to its affordability, age-friendly environment, lively culture, and abundant senior care options. Many refer to senior care communities as nursing homes, but it’s not an all-encompassing term; there are several different types of senior care communities depending on your loved one’s needs:

  • A nursing home or skilled nursing facility provides for seniors needing 24-hour medical supervision.
  • Assisted living is designed for seniors needing assistance with activities of daily living.
  • Memory care supports seniors with Alzheimer’s disease or other types of dementia.

 

A Place for Mom doesn’t partner with stand-alone skilled nursing facilities, but we do partner with 23 assisted living and memory care communities within a 10-mile radius of eastern Tulsa. This guide helps you and your loved one understand Tulsa’s senior care communities, related costs, ways to pay, relevant regulations, and more.

3.3 / 5.0

It's very beautiful. Seems like I have questions and nobody has the answers. With her care and her medication's. We picked this community because of the location, gorgeous property spacious room activities. But there doesn't seem to be as many activities as they told me about for the assisted-living...

4.6 / 5.0

As a retiree, I have worked and managed in many very different environments. I have never see a staff that is so proactive, works so well together, and has such positive attitudes. The room sizes and amenities offered to residents in memory care seem to be just fine!

2.6 / 5.0

The community is very small so we hoped this would mean more personal care but due to covid, we have not been able to get into the community. Communication could be better with faster response times. I would recommend this community to others and already have.

Provides: Nursing Homes
Care types provided by this community
Nursing Homes: Nursing homes provide short-and long-term care for seniors who have physical or mental health conditions that require 24-hour nursing and personal care.

Costs of nursing homes in the Tulsa area

Senior care community costs vary depending on the type of care needed, add-on fees, location, and floor plan. For example, a semi-private room in a Tulsa skilled nursing facility or nursing home averages $5,323 a month, and a private room $6,971. Tulsa nursing home prices are significantly lower than the national average; both semi-private and private rooms are at least $2,000 less monthly than the national average.[01]

Nursing homes or skilled nursing facilities are typically more expensive than assisted living and memory care communities because they provide a higher level of care and usually include the following:

  • 24-hour medical supervision
  • Assistance with personal care services like bathing, eating, dressing
  • Medication management and administration
  • Physical, occupational, and speech therapies
  • Rehabilitative care services

How people pay for a nursing home in Tulsa

Assessing your loved one’s finances can help you decide how to pay for senior care. Tulsa seniors and their families can use a combination of personal assets and public benefits to pay for senior care. Public assistance may include veterans benefits, Medicare, and Medicaid, depending on a senior’s eligibility. This section walks you through the different ways to pay for nursing homes, assisted living, or memory care costs.

Private pay methods in Tulsa

Most families assess available personal income first. Personal assets include savings, pensions, and investment returns. Plus, the options below are often used to help offset the costs of a senior care community.

Number of veterans who live in Tulsa

About 24% of Tulsa veterans are 75+.

Can veterans benefits help pay for senior care?

Yes, the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) offers a wide range of benefits that can help offset senior care costs. Most veterans find the Aid and Attendance benefit to offer the most substantial payment, especially since this is added on top of Veterans Pensions payments.

Keep in mind there are various eligibility requirements for different types of benefits. However, the VA has an extensive list of service-related disabilities that qualify disabled veterans for several benefits. Many veterans qualify for benefits they didn’t expect, so reach out to local benefits assistance to ensure your loved one accesses all the benefits they’re eligible for.

Who do I contact for assistance with veterans benefits?

You or your loved one can contact several resources in Tulsa for benefits counseling, help with the application process, and appealing denied claims. Both nonprofit veterans service organizations (VSOs) and the VA regional benefit office offer this assistance.

Below we list some of the many VSOs in Tulsa, but you can find more Oklahoma resources on the Oklahoma Employment Security Commission website. Additionally, Oklahoma provides a veterans assistance locator — VALOR or OKVALOR — to help find local resources, such as VSOs. This system can be confusing, so follow our step-by-step guide on how to use OKVALOR:

  • Click the OKVALOR link and select GO TO OKVALOR.
  • LAYERS, NAVIGATION, FILTERS, FEATURES, and CONTACT are five clickable options on the left-hand side. Start by clicking on LAYERS. Then, turn on Veteran Support. If your loved one needs other resources, turn on the corresponding options.
  • Next, click NAVIGATION on the left-hand side. Then, select the county or city where your loved one resides.
  • Lastly, select FILTERS on the left-hand side. Toggle on Veterans Assist and select Veteran Service Organization on the corresponding drop-down bar.
  • Finally, a list of VSOs will appear on the right-hand side. Click on any of the resources of triangles on the map for more information on that resource’s location, like hours, fees, and services.

 

The FEATURES tab provides additional guidance for OKVALOR. There is a location on the main page to enter an address, but it may produce confusing results or errors if it’s not an address to a veterans-related resource. Another veteran benefits assistance search engine is provided by the nonprofit organization Tulsa Area United Way, which manages Eastern Oklahoma’s 24-hour 2-1-1 service.

Tulsa Medicaid for nursing homes

Oklahoma’s state health insurance program — SoonerCare — provides health care coverage to eligible seniors with limited income. SoonerCare can be used to help cover Medicaid-contracted skilled nursing home care. However, a physician must prescribe a treatment plan for a senior to be eligible for this coverage. Additionally, a senior must undergo an assessment that deems they meet the following requirements:[04]

  • Needs nursing supervision
  • Needs medical care provided by a nursing facility due to their physical health
  • Has at least one physical impairment
  • Cannot care or communicate for themselves.

Tulsa Medicaid for assisted living and memory care

SoonerCare doesn’t cover room and board costs for senior care facilities like assisted living and memory care. However, home and community based services waivers (HCBS) like the ADvantage waiver program can help cover health care services provided in a residential community. The ADvantage waiver program helps cover several related senior care services, including, but not limited to, the following:

  • Rehabilitative care, like physical, respiratory, occupational, and speech therapy
  • Hospice care
  • Personal caregiving services
  • Skilled nursing services
  • Nursing facility respite care
  • Specialized medical equipment and supplies
  • Institution transition services

 

Seniors must meet specific criteria to qualify for ADvantage. If your loved one doesn’t meet all the requirements, they can find additional Medicaid- or Medicare-related programs through the Community Living, Aging, and Protective Services (CAP).

How can a senior apply for Medicaid

Local resources are available to help you and your loved one understand Medicaid benefits and the application process. It’s essential to get support from resources like the Social Security Administration, Oklahoma Department of Human Services, or area agency on aging offices to ensure your loved one receives all the help they can get. You can ask additional questions and get help from the Northeastern Oklahoma community resource line managed by nonprofit Tulsa Area United Way. Check out below for more information on all these resources.

Medicare nursing home coverage in Tulsa

Medicare provides health care coverage to eligible seniors over 65 and individuals with disabilities. Depending on the plan, this federal program helps cover various beneficial medical expenses.

  • Medicare Part A or hospital insurance covers services from hospice care to rehabilitative services.
  • Medicare Part B or medical insurance covers preventative services from doctor’s appointments to medical supplies.
  • Medicare Part D, or prescription coverage, covers medications and can help cap insulin costs.
  • Special Needs Plans (SNPs) — a Medicare Advantage Plan — covers Part A and B services, as well as coverage for certain chronic conditions, like dementia.
Skilled nursing home coverage

Medicare may cover the first 100 days of a nursing home stay in a Medicare-certified skilled nursing facility. However, the skilled nursing coverage changes throughout the stay:

  • The first 20 days of a stay are 100% covered.
  • Between days 21 and 100, a senior must pay up to a $200 copay.
  • On day 101, a senior no longer has coverage and must pay all skilled nursing costs.

 

Short-term skilled nursing home coverage may include the following services:

  • Semi-private room rental fees
  • Meals and dining services
  • Skilled nursing care services
  • Medications
  • Physical, occupational, and speech therapies
Assisted living and memory care coverage

Unlike nursing homes, Medicare doesn’t cover room and board costs in an assisted living or memory care community. Medicare recipients may be able to use Medicare coverage to help offset medical expenses like hospital or rehabilitation care.

Helpful programs for low-income Medicare recipients

Oklahoma’s Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act (MIPPA) can help low-income Medicare recipients receive financial assistance with premiums through programs like the following:

  • Medicare Savings Program offsets Medicare Part A and/or B premium costs and diabetes supplies/services.
  • Extra Help (or Low-Income Subsidy) offsets Medicare Part D and medication costs.

 

Another beneficial program is the Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE). The dual Medicaid and Medicare program helps seniors 55+ access affordable health care services, such as:

  • Nursing home care
  • Rehabilitative care and wellness therapies
  • Hospice care
  • Medications
  • Meals and nutritional counseling
  • Medically necessary transportation
Find help with Medicare benefits

Like other benefits, Tulsa provides local support to help seniors and their families with benefits counseling and application walk-throughs. Below we offer information on some helpful resources in Tulsa, like the Social Security Administration office, the Area Agency on Aging, and Tulsa Area United Way’s Oklahoma 2-1-1 community resource line.

The Senior Health Insurance Counseling Program also specializes in guiding retirees through Medicare benefits. Oklahoma’s long-term care ombudsman also works to protect the rights of seniors, and can be a helpful resource.

Understand Oklahoma laws and regulations for senior care communities

In Tulsa, the Oklahoma Department of Health (OSDH) licenses all senior care facilities — nursing homes, assisted living, and memory care communities. Additionally, all Oklahoma senior care communities must undergo certain inspections.

  • A Quality Assurance Officer from the OSDH inspects nursing homes at least every six months.
  • Assisted living and memory care communities are inspected annually.

 

If the facility has any deficiencies, it must create a plan of correction within 10 business days of receiving notice of a violation.[05,06]

To find out if a facility has a reported deficiency or any other detailed information, you and your loved one can visit the OSDH Long Term Care Provider Survey/Inspection Search. However, finding inspection reports and licenses can be difficult, so follow our step-by-step guide:

  • Click on the Long Term Care Provider Survey/Inspection Search link.
  • In the top left-hand corner are three drop-down bars — Home, Search, and Contact Us. Hover over Search and click on the corresponding senior community type you’re looking for. Note: Memory care communities are typically located under Assisted Living Centers.
  • Once the search page loads, you can search by Facility Name, City, County, or Zip Code. Choose how you would like to search for a report and click on the respective drop-down bar. Once you find your location or facility, click Search.
  • A list of related licensed senior care communities will generate. For detailed information, select any community your loved one is interested in. The search engine will generate a list of assisted living centers. Click on the community you’re interested in. You’ll find detailed information and a list of documents (SURVEY DOCUMENTS and LICENSES).
  • Here, you’ll find detailed information, SURVEY DOCUMENTS, and LICENSES. We recommend selecting the most recent SURVEY DOCUMENTS to find information on complaints investigations, deficiencies, and plans of corrections.

 

Read on to learn about some of the different regulations for Oklahoma nursing homes, assisted living, and memory care facilities.

Oklahoma nursing home regulations

Oklahoma skilled nursing facilities must meet specific facility and staffing requirements to help ensure your loved one receives the best care in a safe environment.

Facility requirements

For example, skilled nursing homes must limit the number of residents sharing a bedroom and bathroom. At most, four seniors can share a room, and up to four residents can use the same bathroom. Bedrooms must have at least one clothes rod, adjustable shelf, wardrobe, locker, and closet.[05] These requirements change for public areas providing additional services like dining. Check out the Nursing and Specialized Facilities guidelines for further information on these additional requirements.

Staffing requirements

Since skilled nursing facilities provide 24-hour medical care, Oklahoma requires the following nursing home staff:[05]

  • A nursing facility administrator licensed by the State Board of Examiners for Nursing Home Administrators
  • A facility medical director licensed as a medical doctor or osteopathic physician
  • A director of nursing who is a registered nurse or licensed practical nurse
  • Licensed nurses available for a sufficient number of hours to meet every resident’s needs
  • A staff member who oversees meal plans who is a registered/licensed dietician or qualified nutritionist
  • Activity staff members available at least 20 hours per week

 

Oklahoma assisted living and memory care regulations

Oklahoma assisted living and memory care facilities’ laws differ slightly from nursing homes.

Facility requirements

While assisted living and memory care communities aren’t required to offer private units, they cannot allow more than two residents per bedroom. Therefore, many of our partner facilities still offer private and/or semi-private options. Additionally, these units are allowed to be personalized by furnishings and belongings brought by seniors.[06]

Staffing requirements

Staffing requirements are less extensive for assisted living and memory care facilities, and they’re only obligated to staff the following specialists:[06]

  • Nurses
  • Staff qualified to administer medications
  • A facility administrator
  • Licensed dietician or qualified nutritionist

 

Additionally, assisted living and memory care communities are required to provide a certain number of staff members on campus around the clock:

  • At least two staff members limiting access to certain community areas
  • At least one must be a direct staff member who can work 1-1 with residents

 

Direct care staff members who work 1-1 with residents must receive first-aid and CPR training. Caregivers in specialized memory care units must also receive specialized training.[06]

COVID-19 regulations for Tulsa nursing homes

Since Oklahoma’s public health emergency for COVID-19 ended in May 2021, Tulsa hasn’t enforced any COVID-19 restrictions.[07] As COVID-19 continues to change, the Oklahoma Department of Health (OSDH) still recommends following current Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) protocols.

Keep in mind senior care facilities may implement their own COVID-19 restrictions, so ask any potential community about their COVID-19 policies. While facilities cannot eliminate visitation by state law, they can limit visiting hours for up to 72 hours according to the community’s emergency-preparedness plan.[08]

What to expect from nursing homes in Tulsa

With a plethora of senior care communities in Tulsa, we’ve created a guide to what type of service, amenities, and activities you’ll find in nursing homes, assisted living, and memory care communities. Learn more about how each type of senior care community differs.

Advanced care on the same campus

A majority of our senior care partners in Tulsa offer multiple care types — independent living, assisted living, and/or memory care — on the same campus.[02] Communities with multiple care types can help your loved one age in place should their needs change.

Additionally, these facilities especially benefit senior couples with different care needs. In fact, some senior care communities even offer suites designated for couples. However, not all facilities allow couples to live in the same room if their care needs differ, so you or your loved one should ask about options for couples. While most of our assisted living and memory care partners don’t offer on-site skilled nursing care, some facilities in Tulsa still provide this type of care on similar campuses.

Nursing homes for advanced 24/7 medical care needs

Seniors needing advanced 24/7 medical care, but who don’t require hospital supervision, may benefit from a skilled nursing facility in Tulsa. Nursing homes in Tulsa are equipped to handle post-acute care or long-term skilled nursing care with the following medical services:

  • Medication management
  • Physical, occupational, and speech therapies
  • Readmission prevention
  • Restorative nursing care
  • Pain management
  • IV therapy
  • Wound care

 

Like other senior care communities, many of these facilities also offer access to amenities, like wellness spas and activities or special programs. While A Place for Mom doesn’t partner with nursing homes, some of our partner assisted living and memory care communities offer skilled nursing services on-site.

Assisted living for seniors needing around the clock care

If your loved one doesn’t need 24/7 medical attention and only needs help with activities of daily living, assisted living may be a cheaper and better option for their needs. Assisted living communities in Tulsa help keep senior residents safe while encouraging a fulfilling lifestyle.

Services:

With 24-hour caregiver oversight, seniors in assisted living have access to various services in assisted living, such as the following:

  • Assistance with activities of daily living
  • Housekeeping and laundry services
  • Meals and snacks
  • Transportation services
  • On-site health care services like medication management
  • Visiting medical professionals for advanced care services

 

Many assisted living communities also offer nursing services, providing a care option closer to skilled nursing care. This often includes services like those listed below:[02]

  • Hospice care
  • Diabetic care
  • Catheter care
  • Oxygen services
  • Urinary or bowel incontinence care
Amenities:

Seniors in Tulsa assisted living have access to various amenities to boost their quality of life:

  • Outdoor patios and courtyards
  • Fitness centers
  • Beauty salons and barber shops
  • Arts and crafts centers
  • Restaurant-style dining rooms
Activities:

All our assisted living partners in Tulsa help your loved one live an enriching life with on-site activities, such as:

  • Devotional activities
  • Classes for art, cooking, education, stretching, etc.
  • (Chair) Yoga exercises
  • Wii bowling games
  • Live musical, dance, or theater performances

Activities for outdoorsy seniors and families

Most senior care communities offer excursions to the outdoors so seniors aren’t cooped up in the facility. Luckily, Tulsa provides many options for outdoorsy seniors and their visiting loved ones. The area is colloquially called Green County, thanks to its endless outdoor exploration opportunities. One of the best and most accessible options for seniors is the ADA-compliant park: Gathering Place.
