We liked Harrison House for my sister. It seemed clean and well cared for. The clientele is what you would expect in a nursing home that is associated with a counseling center. There were people with a lot of different mental health issues. It is small, and my sister is going to have a roommate. They do have activities, and I don't have anything bad to say about it. I would say it is no better and no worse than where she is now, and it gets her into Scranton, which is gold. It is a room, not an apartment. There are beds, and you can bring your own furniture. I believe they have a desk and a chair. If you want a television in your room, you can bring it. It is your basic assisted living room, like a dorm. The person that took me around was wonderful. She was very helpful. They provide three meals a day, and they can get snacks. They can come down and get a drink whenever they want. We weren't there at mealtime. It looks like pretty basic stuff. They were having sandwiches for lunch, and they had eggs for breakfast. I forgot what they were having for dinner, but it was a cooked dinner. It was not anything bad, and there were a couple of options. They have a yard outside with picnic tables, and they use part of it for a smoking area. It is basically like a backyard that you would see next to a house.

Harrison House was not good, and I don’t want to recommend them to others. They need to get new employees, and better parking.
