The Best Senior Living Communities in Shawnee, OK

"I moved my Dad into Shawnee Care Center a little over two years ago. His room is always clean. The staff is caring and patient. For the most part, I feel he is well taken care of which is so important and a relief. The Center is good to call me if anything happens or changes. The building is older but has been well maintained. There is longevity with several staff members."

"The staff at Regency went above and beyond to make my moms short stay a vacation instead of a dr ordered nightmare. My mom went in depressed and was completely convinced that she was going to be completely incapable of self care again. She heard too many stories of broken hips being a first class ticket to a permanent nursing home stay. Nothing I said could convince her that this was temporary and just a stepping stone back home. The very next morning I was ready to go visit and try to brighten her day and was surprised to see her cutting up, laughing, smiling and back to her bubbly self. She was eating lunch and she was bragging on how good the food was and that’s surprising because my mom is one of the absolute pickiest eater I’ve ever known. Every phone call and visit that followed was the same as that initial visit and she really was having a blast. I had the pleasure to meet her 4 favorites that I absolutely adore too now. We will miss them but I am eternally grateful for the care and love they gave my mom. Noah, Debbie, Meagan and Cassandra (the spelling may not be correct) are the absolute best! The whole staff is amazing but those 4 will forever be in my moms heart and I hope to see them again soon to update them on moms progress at home and let her give them big hugs. Thank you Regency and thank you Noah, Debbie, Meagan and Cassandra for everything you do."

"I toured Avonlea Cottage of Shawnee. It was very nice. It's small. They have 15 or 16 residents. But I'm waiting to hear back from them with the prices. The girl wasn't there yesterday when I went over, so I left my number and she said she'd call me sometime today to give me an idea what the cost is. The staff was very nice and very friendly. They went out of their way to take me around and look over everything. They're very good. The facility was clean and very well cared for. They have a lovely park-like setting outside because there's a green strip right behind them, and it was nice there. You could go out and sit. I was telling the girl when she was showing their back patio that it's kind of like I do here as I go out on the front porch. They've got birdhouses and flowers. It's set up for somebody like me. They had everything they needed for gardening if you want to garden. The staff was very nice explaining things as we went on. The facilities were very clean and everything was in its place."

"Primrose Retirement Community of Shawnee was very clean and the apartments were beautiful. The director was very nice and you could tell he cared about the people. They sent us a little cherry pie to go for each of us, and it was delicious. They had a theater room for the residents, a coffee bar, a beauty shop, and a fitness center some of them would use. It was expensive, but it was very nice."

"We had to place my mother recently with Golden Rule for Skilled Nursing Care. We were so anxious but could not be more pleased with the care she has received. These are truly loving and compassionate people, from the nursing staff to the therapists. They cared for our mother as if she were there own. "

"They really do work hard to provide good care. They are a blessing to the families of loved ones here. You won't be disappointed. The staff is very caring,even when they don't know you are watching them. They always take time with every concern even when they are busy. From aids to transport and nursing and janitors they are friendly and caring. "

"My mother has been a resident of Meeker Nursing Center since the middle of May 2022. She was getting hospice care in my home at the time and it became impossible for me to care for her as she needed. Hospice recommended Meeker as the cleanest nursing home near to us. They recently gained a new administrator and he's really caring and involved. We had a nice Thanksgiving dinner last month and there is a Christmas party planned this month for residents and family members. There is always going to be staff shortages since so many people just don't want to work! This is the current cultural climate in our country, but my observation is that Meeker staff do care about the residents. I do recommend this nursing home for your loved one, but please visit as much as you can. I do. Also, the food has improved a lot since my Mom moved there. Their nutritionist is training the current kitchen staff new ways of preparing meals and my mother has let them know how much she likes the improvement."

"Mom is in McLoud Nursing Center. It is our choice because it is close to my house. I have a friend who also has a mother in there as well as a friend who works as hospice there. I just love it. The people there are friendly. My mother gets to do what she wants to do. The staff is excellent. They are always busy. They are always taking care of somebody and they take good care of her. When you call them, they will come right in. Her room is nice but my mother do not want to sleep in her room so I bring a chair and they allow her to sleep on the chair in the foyer where everybody is because she wants to see people all the time and she didn't like to be by herself. I am pleased with them and I will definitely recommend them to others. "

"Our family is totally happy with Seminole Pioneer. Our family member is very content and their health has stabilized since moving here. The administration, medical staff and maintenance dept., and support employees are professional and an asset to the facility. When we visit our family member we all notice improvements on the facility to make Siminole Pioneer a safe place to call home for our loved one. "

"We placed mom in Seminole Care and Rehabilitation Center. They went out of the way to get her a private room, listened to her needs, and meet those needs. All of the staff, of course, has been overworked. They do it cheerfully, and my mom said that she's happy there. That's what is important: that she's taken care of. I'm happy about that. It was just fantastic as far as the communication goes. They just really met our needs for a mother, and they just really helped the transition go so much easier."

"My wife is in Harrah Nursing Center. She's getting excellent care and the staff seems good and they seem to enjoy what they're doing. She's in a locked down area and they have their own dining room and TV room. They have activities in the dining area like crafts and other things."

"My husband is in adult day care at E.O.C. Technology Center. The staff is very good and caring, and we're very pleased. They provide transportation, medication, and meals during the day. The caregivers are very caring and very professional. They do some morning exercises, do puzzles, and play games like bingo and dominoes. The food is not like home, but it's still good. I think they're really interested in his health. They do everything they can to make sure he's comfortable and that he can feel as independent as possible. "

"My grandmother will be going to FountainBrook Assisted Living & Memory Support. It's close to our house and it's more updated than the other facility. The lunch menu was great. They have a choice like a restaurant style and they're open all day; they don't have cutoff times for the food. They have entertainment, activities, a beauty barber salon, a library, and a huge 6-foot tall bird enclosure, and my grandmother loves birds. They have the standard cleaning service once a week and laundry service. The staff was great. We texted, emailed, and left messages and we even got there early because we wanted to see what was going on before our scheduled time and she was open to seeing us. We looked at several different rooms. They had a studio and a one-bedroom. She was great."
