Fairfax Manor in Fairfax, Oklahoma, operates as a skilled nursing home that provides round-the-clock licensed nursing oversight. Residents who need short-term support can use the community’s respite program, which allows family caregivers a break while ensuring their loved ones receive continuous monitoring and professional attention. A dedicated on-site physical therapy team designs individualized treatment plans aimed at restoring mobility, managing pain, and improving balance after surgery, illness, or injury. All therapy sessions are coordinated with the resident’s attending physician so progress is documented and goals are adjusted as needed.
Beyond skilled nursing and rehabilitation, the staff assists residents with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, mobility, and medication administration. A nurse supervises medication management to reduce errors and verify proper dosages, while routine vital-sign checks help detect emerging health issues early. Care plans are reviewed regularly and can include coordination with outside specialists or the arrangement of on-site lab work and imaging when appropriate. Families receive updates on changes in condition so they can stay informed and involved in care decisions.
Accommodations at Fairfax Manor include both private and shared rooms, with select units offering pet-friendly options, cable television, and access to landscaped outdoor areas. Common spaces such as the library and computer lounge allow residents to read, browse the internet, or video chat with family. Housekeeping services keep living areas clean, while garden paths provide a place for light exercise and fresh air. Not every room contains every feature, so prospective residents are encouraged to confirm availability during a tour.
Daily meals are prepared on-site and aim to accommodate a wide range of dietary needs. Standard menus include low-sodium choices and regularly scheduled healthy snacks, with alternate options for kosher, vegetarian, and gluten- or allergen-free diets. Staff dietitians monitor nutritional intake and adjust meal plans as medical conditions change, ensuring residents receive proper caloric and nutrient levels without compromising medical goals.
Residents have access to an activity center that hosts bingo games, social clubs, and community meetings designed to foster interaction and reduce isolation. Health and wellness programs offer light exercise classes and educational sessions, while TV and movie nights provide low-key entertainment in group settings. Scheduled social outings allow residents to visit local attractions or run personal errands with staff supervision, reinforcing community engagement and personal independence.
