Southbrook Healthcare sits at 832 Isabel St in Ardmore, Oklahoma, and has been taking care of residents for over 45 years, always making sure there's registered nurses on-site every day and doctors on call around the clock, so people get the help they need any time, day or night, and the facility's also got all its beds certified for both Medicare and Medicaid, so folks can feel sure about getting covered care. Operated by Elmbrook Management Company, which runs several other nursing homes and an assisted living center in southern Oklahoma, Southbrook Healthcare holds a place as a skilled nursing facility where you'll find inpatient nursing, long-term care, and assisted living, so folks can move from short-term rehab to more long-term support as their needs change, and they keep the admissions open around the clock, which makes transitions a little easier. People here can get specialized nursing assistance, support for Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and other dementia, along with help from Certified Medical Assistant Annica Stone and Director of Nursing Claudia Motal, all under the primary oversight of administrator Craig Kelley, plus there's always skilled care staff available and physicians checking in on the skilled nursing patients at least twice a week.
People who need physical, occupational, or speech therapy can use the fully equipped rehab unit, which has modern therapy tools, and a screening process starts right at admission to look over what each person might need; some stay short-term to recover after a hospital visit before heading home, while others live here longer and get daily support. The nurses help with personal care, pain management, and specialized tasks like dialysis or hospice care, and staff build out treatment plans tailored for every resident, rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach. Amenities are practical-hospitality services, comfortable common lounging areas, private rooms for special family events, restaurant-style dining reviewed by a registered dietitian, daily activity programs like music, fitness, trivia, games, and even volunteer visits, and you'll notice there's also a "Send a Greeting" service for mail delivery so residents keep connections alive. Social services offer help for both residents and families, and you'll notice they want to encourage residents to keep their dignity and independence as much as possible, with a schedule full of choices, outdoor gatherings, and even a resident council where folks can voice their opinions or take part in planning. Family visits are welcome every day from 7 am to 9 pm, and people can stay later with a heads-up, plus prospective families can always set up a tour to see things in person for themselves.
