Nursing Home Watch (Q1 2026): CMS data show a mixed picture across Oklahoma facilities: Broken Bow Health and Rehabilitation ranked 2nd in McCurtain County but earned a 2-star rating; Henryetta Community Skilled Healthcare & Rehab hit a 4-star rating in Okmulgee County; Oakridge Nursing Center landed at 2 stars in Bryan County; and Homestead of Hugo in Choctaw County received just 1 star, with two fines and two penalties. Medicaid Tech Shift: New Mexico and a handful of states—including Oklahoma—have started using AI to meet new federal Medicaid work requirements, with officials saying verifying hours of work or school is “super complicated.” Public Safety Health: Oklahoma Gov. Stitt signed the Blake Burgess Blood Clot Prevention Act, aiming to reduce preventable blood-clot deaths. Community EMS Vote: Hennessey is holding a town hall May 26 ahead of a June 16 Ambulance District election, with residents weighing costs and coverage. Poison Prevention: The Oklahoma Poison Center is warning lake-goers about carbon monoxide dangers on boats, especially near running engines.
