Is The Villages at Southern Hills's state inspection record current?

- March 4, 2025 (most recent)
- June 13, 2023

- July 21, 2021
That is longer than the 15-month maximum OSDH's rule sets for unannounced assisted living inspections (OAC 310:663-25-1). Scanning lags actual visits, so ask the center for its most recent statement of deficiencies. Count of survey documents since 2023: 1 (area median 2). Survey documents include complaint investigations as well as routine inspections, so a higher count can mean more complaints, a follow-up visit, or both.

What should we ask on a tour of The Villages at Southern Hills?
Use the state data to steer the tour: the newest survey document is 20 months old; ask for the most recent statement of deficiencies and plan of correction.
- Ask what care-level fees are added to the base rate and how often they have risen.
- Find out who is awake at night for 98 beds, and ask for the written urgent-situation plan if only one caregiver is on.
- Ask who passes medications on evenings and weekends, and whether a CMA with advanced training handles insulin.
- Request the service contract early and read the discharge criteria, which Oklahoma requires the center to spell out.
