What is Residential Care?

Residential Care Facilities are licensed by the Oklahoma State Department of Health and are staffed 24 / 7.

Residential Care Facilities strive to maintain the "home" atmosphere for it's Residents while providing residential accommodations, food service, and supportive assistance for ambulatory Residents who do not routinely require skilled nursing care.
