Overview of The Gardens at Rivermont

The Gardens at Rivermont occupies a site on South Canadian Trails Drive in Norman, Oklahoma, a mid-sized municipality within the Oklahoma City metropolitan region. The infrastructure consists of a single-story structure with a 70-bed capacity. A Walk Score of 26 indicates a low level of pedestrian accessibility, necessitating automotive transport for nearly all logistical requirements outside the immediate facility perimeter.

Current utilization is recorded at 73 percent, representing 51 active beds. This occupancy level is statistically lower than the industry baseline for this facility classification, yet the provided dataset contains no variables to account for the vacancy rate. An average length of stay of 226 days indicates a bifurcated service model that supports both short-term post-acute rehabilitation and long-term clinical care. The residential inventory is composed exclusively of one-bedroom configurations.

Staffing analysis reveals a total of 4 hours and 55 minutes of nursing care per resident per day. Nurse aides account for 2 hours and 18 minutes of this allocation. Registered Nurse and Licensed Practical Nurse coverage is quantitatively lower, with each category providing less than 30 minutes of daily care. Revenue streams include Medicare, Medicaid, and private payment sources, ensuring multiple financial integration paths.

Historical state inspection data emphasizes care planning, documentation accuracy, personnel credentials, and injury prevention protocols. These focal points align with standard regulatory oversight patterns and do not indicate significant operational anomalies.

The facility is a low-density, single-story nursing operation currently functioning below peak capacity in a car-dependent location. Staffing ratios remain within established norms, and the financial structure accommodates broad access. The duration of stay suggests the system effectively manages both transitional and permanent residents. It represents a functional solution for those requiring a small-scale nursing environment in the Norman area with Medicaid compatibility.
