Nursing Home Communities in Nanticoke, PA

"My mom is a resident of Allied Services Skilled Nursing Center. It's an excellent facility, which is a little bit too much for her right now. They're wonderful there. The whole place is fantastic, not only the staff, but also the facilities. It's a beautiful place. They have a patio outside. They have really good therapy. They also have an activities room. They have activity aides and they get the residents involved."

"My mom moved into Manorcare in Kingston and she stayed for only 18 days. There are three people to a room, which is a little disconcerting, but other than that they take good care of my mom. The staff and service was very professional. They had quite a few activities that worked out well for everybody else. The cleanliness of the place was good."

"A nice facility, staff very friendly, with the exception of horrible weekend contract nursing. It's always advisable to visit loved one as much as possible. Squeaky wheel. Clean and cared for. Always feel welcomed. One of the nicer ones in the local area."

"I have to say that his stay in this place is 100% better than where he was at the hospital. It's clean the staff is awesome and the food is great. They really are working to help him as well as help take care of him. In the hospital it took forever to get someone to help him shower or use the bathroom and now when you say you need help the come and help right away. The most important thing is that they treat the people like they care and like people. Now we are all happy with where he is. It is a great place. "

"My mom is at Timber Ridge Health Center. The staff is wonderful, very attentive, and provided her with all the services that she needed. She has a roommate, but she is comfortable, and the room is very nice with nice furniture. They have different activities, like arts and games nights. The food is wonderful, and the dining area is clean and comfortable. "

"I visited the Meadows Nursing and Rehabilitation Center. It’s a nice place with a fine staff, but it seems like they don’t put on enough people each shift. The food is adequate with a good menu of choices, and residents can eat in a dining room setting or their rooms. The rooms were fine, but they should be updated. Their number one need is to improve on staffing. "

"The Mercy Center Skilled Nursing & Personal Care in Dallas is on the campus of College Misericordia. Now, that was really like my first choice. The facility there is beautiful. They have a full church on the campus. It is a very, very clean, very nice facility. I was impressed, you know, when I had gone there and was going to place Mom there. But unfortunately, the way that they handled the situation, I don't think they're as qualified to handle dementia care. But for assisted living, or anything like that, it was excellent. They even have an outdoor pool there, and a beautiful patio area. To me, it was like you were going into a really fancy hotel. They even have a gift shop there, they have a church, a beautiful reception area, and the outdoor area grounds are beautiful. It was really a very, very well-manicured, and well cared for facility. So, I would recommend that for anybody else, but for dementia, I would look into that a little bit further. I liked it too that they accepted Medicaid, they had a skilled nursing unit also, a whole floor, and it was like walking into a hospital. That was one of the concepts I liked."

"If at all possible stay away from this place. Care is horrible, staff ignorant and conditions are unreal. My loved one was not able to move. They would put water where it was unreachable, meds not given on time, call bell out of reach, food terrible and put out of reach before taken away fell out of bed four times and was hurt, Just to mention a FEW of the many things a complained about. Finally she was admitted to the hospital then to hospice where she passed in peace."

"Staff is very caring and well trained. The place is well kept and very clean. Activities involving live music is provided and is well received by residents. Additionally, the admissions team is very professional and well prepared upon initial arrival at the home. "

"When my father in law was admitted, I didn't think he would stay, even for the night. But he did, and he knew he needed therapy so he could come home. It was late when he was admitted and the staff was very accommodating and reassuring. The next day when therapy started, he knew he was getting the best of care and got very motivated. In 20 days, he was totally rehabilitated and going home. The therapy department and nursing staff are second to none. Everyone we encountered, in every department, were top notch. It's so reassuring to know that Highland Manor is here when and if we need them. "

"Sincere Thank You to Nurses, Staff, and Administration who helped to care for my Godfather / Uncle at Mountain City Nursing & Rehab Center in Hazleton, Pa. My Uncle was there for almost 2 years, and was on Hospice the last few months of his stay. My Aunt was so impressed with the Nursing Care that my Uncle got and how she, his wife, was treated. The communication and support was excellent. My Uncle was a wonderful and yet difficult man to care for - my Aunt had him at home in a hospital bed for 10 years before admission there. The Nurses and Staff treated him with kindness and dignity despite his actions and behaviors. Even through CoVid, my Aunt was there as much as she could, to visit and feed him. She observed the Nurses & Staff giving meds, moving, toileting, washing, and changing him. They were always so kind. When he passes away, the staff knew her, hugged her, and shared the pain of her loss. She has even told us that is where she wants to be when it is no longer safe for her to be at her own home. So very grateful, God Daughter / Niece who is a Nurse. "

"The staff was not very friendly and it was difficult for my grandfather to get the care he needed. He was often neglected for a long period of time and was not fed on a regular schedule. Cleanliness of the location was also a concern. It seemed as if they did not have continuity with their staff and had issues with staff quitting all of the time. Before he passed away, the staff seemed to be getting better but still had room for improvement. Grief counseling could also be improved. "

"My mother in law was a resident at this facility. There are many seasoned staff members who provided excellent care for her. "

"The rooms were clean and comfortable. They were very accommodating with what the patient would eat. The staff was helpful and friendly and could not go out of their way to take care of my mom."
