The Chateau
In Lawton’s Austin neighborhood, The Chateau operates a 42-bed assisted living and memory care community at 6302 Southwest Lee Boulevard under administrator Sam Ghosn.
Nineteen beds serve Alzheimer’s and dementia residents; 23 support general assisted living. Current census is 25 residents (60% occupancy, matching the state average). The facility accepts private-pay residents only, not Medicare or Medicaid. Residents occupy one-bedroom apartments with kitchenettes, private bathrooms, and customizable furnishings in a car-dependent area (Walk Score 12, requiring vehicle access).
The community provides three daily restaurant-style meals prepared on-site, 24-hour staffing, nursing care hours 27 percent above Oklahoma’s average, and amenities including salon and barbershop services, scheduled transportation, landscaped grounds with outdoor patios, walking paths, picnic areas, fireplaced living areas, emergency call systems, coded security doors, weekly housekeeping, personal laundry, organized activities, health equipment, shopping excursions, and meal delivery to units.
Regulatory history from 2019–2025 documents 15 deficiencies (88% above state average).
A June 2020 COVID-19 focused inspection identified inadequate quarantine practices and inconsistent PPE availability; compliance was achieved by August 2020.
March 2024’s complaint investigation disclosed nine substantiated deficiencies: failure to assess and plan care for residents on hospice or home health services, lack of written service agreements with outside providers, kitchen sanitation failures, water temperatures exceeding safe limits (124.1°F in multiple rooms vs. 115°F maximum), hand hygiene lapses during medication administration across five residents, gaps in care coordination, incomplete accommodation plans, and outdated background checks on a rehired employee.
October 2025’s follow-up complaint investigation identified five deficiencies: inadequate pest prevention in food preparation areas, unreported abuse allegation, insufficient abuse training for new hires (within 90 days), missing accommodation agreements for injectable and wound care services, and incomplete background screening upon hire for one employee.
November 2025’s dementia care disclosure noted no current deficiencies.
Occupancy has declined from 30 in mid-2020 to 25 as of late 2025. No monetary penalties or license actions were issued.
The Chateau’s recent pattern of deficiencies, particularly in abuse reporting, staff training, background verification, and infection control, reflects ongoing operational challenges addressed through corrective action plans completed or targeted for completion by December 2025.
Families seeking placement for prospective private-pay residents should directly request current status on all corrective measures before placement.
