Parks Edge Nursing & Rehabilitation Center sits at 5115 East 51st Street in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and it's a one-story place that's pretty easy to get around in, making things simpler for seniors who may not get around as they once did. The facility holds 126 certified beds, and usually has over a hundred residents, so it's on the bigger side among senior options in the city. It's owned by a for-profit corporation, managed by PurpleDoor, LLC, with Ms. Debbie Inks as the Administrator, and the center's got an A+ BBB rating. Residents find services that cover skilled nursing, rehabilitation, assisted living, independent living, memory care for Alzheimer's and dementia, and even hospice and adult day care options. Folks who need help with daily things like bathing, dressing, or medications get support from nursing staff, and the place is set up for people needing transfers and non-ambulatory care.
Nurses work at least 12-16 hours a day, with round-the-clock supervision to make sure everyone has what they need, and there's a mix of Registered Nurses, Licensed Practical Nurses, and CNAs on-site, with staff putting in over an hour of direct care per resident each day. If someone likes company, Parks Edge sets up community activities, walking paths, music, arts, game rooms, and even movie nights in their own theater, and there's a community room for gatherings or meals. Meals come prepared by a professional chef, with restaurant-style dining and sensitivity for allergies or diabetes, and you can find something to eat any time of the day, but if you just want a simpler meal in your apartment, there are kitchenettes, cable TV, and private bathrooms in the rooms. The building has amenities like laundry and housekeeping, dry cleaning, mail services, and Wi-Fi, and there's an emergency alert system if anyone runs into trouble. You can find resident and family councils, so everyone has a voice in care decisions, and the center's not part of any hospital or chain-just a single location on its own Lot.
Some folks choose independent living apartments with 24-hour supervision and care, and others opt for assisted living, with personal help and housekeeping, plus some general healthcare services, so people can keep up an active lifestyle if they want. The staff offer health assessments and planning advice to help residents stay independent and as well as possible. Medicare and Medicaid are accepted, with resources for both residents and prospective newcomers, so people in many financial situations get the support they need.
Parks Edge Nursing & Rehabilitation Center is fully sprinklered and safe, with outdoor areas and walking paths, a garden, and space to be outside if the weather's nice. Inside, they've got a library, fitness room, and a spa or wellness area, and there's transportation and parking for folks who need it. There's move-in help to make the process smooth, and the staff focuses on keeping up a friendly, helpful atmosphere that tries to make everyone feel welcome. The facility provides memory care aimed at reducing confusion and preventing wandering for residents with dementia, and the rehabilitation program helps people recover after illness or injury. While Parks Edge isn't a continuing care retirement community, it does offer many senior living options, mostly focusing on nursing and memory care, and always aiming to keep residents as independent and well as they can be. The location's in a walkable neighborhood, and the programs and therapies on offer help keep people engaged socially, physically, and mentally.
