More about Shawnee Colonial Estates
Full-time team members receive PTO, major medical, dental, vision, disability coverage, employer-paid life, a 401(k), tuition assistance, and professional development help; part-time staff can still join the 401(k). Staff reviews on Indeed (about 14) land near 4.0 overall and often mention teamwork and a supportive culture. Pay and advancement scores run lower, around 3.3. CMS-linked ratings are weak—near one star overall, with health inspection and staffing also in the one-to-two-star range—so you should walk in eyes open about regulatory pressure and staffing texture. In April 2023 a tornado heavily damaged the building; employees moved 79 residents out with no injuries before a temporary closure for repairs. LPN pay has been estimated around $28.74 an hour. Shawnee’s average local commute is about 13 minutes, housing costs run below nearby OKC suburbs, and downtown Oklahoma City is roughly 35 minutes west on I-40 if you want metro access without metro rent.
