Nursing & rehab · Chickasha, Oklahoma

Every resident here is still somebody's sweetheart.

Terra Rosa is a 90-bed nursing and rehabilitation center on the west side of Chickasha, with short-stay therapy six days a week and long-term care from nurses who stay for decades.

A letter from our administrator

We care for people the way their families would, if they had a nurse's training.

Most of the people who come to Terra Rosa have spent their lives in Grady County. They taught at the high school, ran cattle out past Ninnekah, worked the cotton gin or the Rock Island depot. Some come to us for three weeks after a new hip. Some come to stay. Either way, they come carrying a whole life, and we think the first job of good nursing is to know it.

So our charge nurses learn the names of grandchildren. Our therapists ask what you want to get back to, not just how far you can walk. Our dietary staff learn who wants cornbread and who wants a biscuit. And every evening, someone on every hall takes the time to say goodnight properly. It is not complicated. It just takes people who mean it.

— Lydia Fairchild, administrator

Notes from our families

Three weeks after my knee replacement I walked out the front door on my own. Marcus had me practicing the steps to my porch.
Darlene P.Rehab patient, 2025
Mama has lived here six years. Gloria still calls me herself when anything changes, even small things.
Rick T.Son of a resident
Kendra helped us with the SoonerCare application line by line. We'd been stuck for months.
Shelly A.Daughter of a resident
They found out Dad used to call square dances. Now he calls the Friday bingo numbers like it's a hoedown.
Tony M.Son of a resident
My wife's wound healed in five weeks after months of trouble at home. The nurses measured it every Monday and showed me.
Herb L.Husband of a resident
I got discharged from the hospital on a Saturday. Teresa answered on the first ring and had a bed ready by three.
Clara W.Rehab patient, 2024
Every night an aide stops in to say goodnight to Grandma by name. That's what sold us.
Ashley R.Granddaughter of a resident
The Sunday dinners are the best part. My whole family comes, and nobody rushes us out.
Bev K.Daughter of a resident
After my stroke they had speech, OT and PT all in the same room planning together. I was home in a month.
Leonard H.Rehab patient, 2025
When Mom passed, Reverend Moore sat with us for an hour. He still sends a card on her birthday.

Our story

Forty-five years on the west side

Terra Rosa opened with sixty beds and a promise from its founders, a Chickasha doctor and his nurse wife, that no resident would ever be just a room number.
