Building communities that provide options for seniors

Seniors have various housing options that provide various degrees of medical attention, nursing services and assistance with activities of daily living. The care levels increase along a continuum, including:

• Independent living communities
• Assisted living housing
• Skilled nursing facilities

For Oklahoma seniors, living in the right type of environment is essential to their dignity and well-being. It is important that their residency agreements accurately reflect the terms of the arrangement so that owners, managers, staff and residents are protected, too. Our Tulsa lawyers prepare residency agreements that address the unique aspects of each care level and function.

Evolving senior housing legislation

Our team is actively involved in shaping the legislation that affects senior housing. We have successfully facilitated the passage of legislation that safeguards the rights of residents, and that preserves profitability for investors and owners. We work with regulatory agencies to provide seniors the opportunity to enjoy the most advanced nursing care and compassionate treatment available.
