Colonial Manor Nursing Center sits in Tulsa, Oklahoma at 1815 E Skelly Dr and offers a range of care for older adults, and the place has a long history of serving seniors who need different kinds of help, so there are options like independent living for active seniors, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing services for those who need more support, and this is also a nursing and rehab center with both long-term and short-term care. People can get around-the-clock assistance with daily activities like bathing or dressing, and registered staff give regular nursing and medical care, so there's always someone there to help or answer a call for help day or night, and that includes skilled nursing, wound care, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, dentistry, and other specialized services.

The community does its best to keep things lively by offering both planned activities and trips as well as events run by the residents themselves, so folks can join things that interest them, make friends, and stay engaged whether they want to join a club, read a book in the small library, keep up with a fitness routine in the exercise room, or get some fresh air in the garden and outdoor space, plus there's a wellness center aimed at helping both body and mind. Residents can live in fully furnished rooms that come with private bathrooms, kitchenettes, cable, air-conditioning, telephone, and Wi-Fi, and the independent living spaces often include on-site meal programs with one to two meals a day, and some housekeeping and laundry services may be included or offered for a fee.

Colonial Manor Nursing Center has 120 certified beds with about 53 residents on an average day, and the nurse staffing averages 3.39 nursing hours per resident every day, but nurse turnover is pretty high at 63%, which is something to keep in mind, and the caregiver-to-senior ratio meets state licensing rules. They take Medicaid, Medicare, social security disability, and some federal and state programs for residents who qualify.
Facility inspections gave Colonial Manor Nursing Center an A- for quality, and while the center works to follow all safety and infection-control standards, reports over the years have found 11 deficiencies, and some of those relate to protection from abuse or neglect, infection control, and nutrition standards, so while a lot of support's provided, it's good to be aware of the oversight points and the areas being worked on.
