The Suites at Elmbrook is a licensed assisted living community located at 1711 9th Avenue Northwest in Ardmore, Oklahoma, in Carter County. The facility has operated since 1995 and is administered by Rhonda Shirley. It operates 60 beds across 46 single-story suites configured for single or double occupancy. Occupancy stands at 56.7 percent with 34 of 60 beds filled, below the Oklahoma state average of 60.6 percent. This below-average occupancy warrants direct inquiry into its implications for operations and residents.
The facility features single-story design with no stairs, emergency call buttons in each suite, smoke detectors and sprinklers connected to a central fire alarm, and a designated safe room for severe weather. These physical features support safety and accessibility for residents with mobility or cognitive challenges. Six confirmed amenities include housekeeping and linen services, paid utilities excluding phone, local transportation, a beauty shop, assistance with activities of daily living, and library and sitting areas. Restaurant-style dining is provided with evening service and daily breakfast, with beverages available throughout the day.
Nine inspections have been conducted by the Oklahoma State Department of Health, Protective Health Services across the facility’s operating history. The most recent, a relicensure survey from November 19, 2025, found 1 deficiency against an Oklahoma average of 8, indicating strong regulatory standing. A June 2024 inspection cited unsafe refrigerated food storage and absent temperature monitoring, issues subsequently corrected. A complaint investigation in August 2022 concerning wound and ostomy care supplies was unsubstantiated. No fines, enforcement actions, or license suspensions appear in the available reports. The inspection record reflects consistent compliance with minor exceptions.
The Suites at Elmbrook suits seniors seeking established assisted living near Ardmore with a single-story residential design and strong regulatory compliance across a 30-year operating history.
