In the fourth quarter of 2023, Summers Healthcare, LLC stood out as the second largest nursing home in Blaine County, according to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).

Summers Healthcare, LLC boasted an overall rating of 4 from the CMS, which is higher than the average of 2.7 recorded for nursing homes in Oklahoma.

According to US Census data, in 2020, nearly 1 in 6 Americans were aged 65 years or older. Since 1920, the older population skyrocketed from 4.9 million to 55.8 million, reflecting a growth rate of roughly 1,000%, five times higher than the average growth for the overall U.S. population.

A 2021 study suggests that nearly half of this age group, roughly 28 million individuals, may require long-term services and support. Additionally, the study projects that over a third of them may eventually need nursing home care.

“Living a long life is something that many of us want and could get,” said Jesse Slome, executive director of the American Association for Long-Term Care Insurance, an insurance education group. “But when we live a long life, the chances of us needing long-term care increase exponentially. But when you need that type of care, there are limited options.”
