My mom, Susanna Roman, was recently admitted to Sequoyah Pointe SNF. She was there from August 1st, 2025 to September 2nd, 2025. While she was there a short time the care she received was exemplary! I live in California and everyone was so amazing with letting me know if there were changes and how she was. My mom was in isolation while recovering from C.Diff. She told me all the nurses were nice & patient with her :) When she came out of isolation, I called her and discovered her room didnt have a phone but multiple nurses tried to let her use their cell phones. Unfortunately alot of companies had poor signals in her room. Til one day a nurse had the right cell service and I got to talk to my Momma at last! It was the best 30 minutes ♡ Thank you, Sequoyah Pointe SNF for loving on my Momma when I couldnt be there! I highly recommend them if you need SN care for your loved one! (Can you install more phones for residents to use?)

Frozen pizza & canned green beans for dinner? Seriously? Do NOT send your family members here. It is DEPLORABLE. Couldnt get anyone to come help my mother to the restroom. 5 times in one night, FAIL. Then leave her off her oxygen for 5 HOURS. This place is a hell hole & how sad its employee owned, yet they clearly don't care about their residents. Should be shut down and lose medicare funding. Thankfully, we are recovering at a different facility.

I want to give this place zero stars. My dad has been there one week for rehabilitation. And everyday for breakfast he has biscuits and gravy. He is diabetic. So far they have only served him starchy foods and fried breaded foods. then pump him up with insulin to balance out the sugars. How about you feed him properly so he doesn’t have to rely on insulin to bring down his sugar. Food can be healing if you eat right. I’m so disappointed and I want to just bring him home. They never offered him towels and wash cloths. I had to go hunt someone down and ask for some. PLEASE DO NOT PUT YOUR LOVED ONES IN THIS PLACE.

Jan 15th 2022 Covid positive employees were aloud to remain working. The patients had to be locked down due to employee error. They hire motivated people that get shut out by the long term burnt out employees. Food is often behind by even hours and some patients may get overlooked and given a sandwich.

The nurses and staff are very attentive to the needs of the patients and guests. My grandmother fell and had to have a short stay for rehabilitation needs. This is only one of two choices for in care rehab in Tahlequah . It was not our first choice but everything turned out very well. Everyone is very kind and well mannered. The physical therapy unit is great and they go above and beyond to get people back up and going!
