Homestead of Bethany is a 30-bed nursing home on North Council Road in Bethany, Oklahoma, a rural community west of Oklahoma City. Owned by Gwendolyn Chance and operating for 47 years, the home has established deep roots in the area, serving a stable local population. It’s currently fully occupied with 30 residents, reflecting consistent demand and community trust in the facility. Accepted are Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, which provide families with many ways to cover care costs.
The community serves post-acute rehabilitation residents and those requiring active nursing care, averaging a stay length of 162 days. Substantial is daily nursing support, with total nursing care averaging 4 hours and 41 minutes per resident day. That level of hands-on staffing includes registered nurses, nurse aides, and licensed practical nurses working across the day. Bethany itself is car-dependent, with limited nearby walkable options, though the location offers easy access to the broader Oklahoma City area for visiting family members and medical appointments.
State inspections have documented stable compliance over time. A recent survey found no deficiencies and substantiated no complaints regarding care as per physician orders. Inspections from earlier years had flagged concerns in food service, medication storage, staff reviews, and fire safety, but the home has addressed such issues and shown improvement over subsequent surveys.
Families contemplating Homestead of Bethany may want to tour the facility to see the care setting and learn about its daily operations and staffing approach.
Homestead of Bethany is administrated by Bre'ana Griesel.
