Food prep is terrible to say the least. The tray that your meal is served on are dirty and stained, the glasses are all stained, food is barely warm upon arrival. Don't expect to receive what is on the menu because it's rarely what it is supposed to be there. Always a staff shortage leaving at time 2 CNA caring for over 20 residents. 20-30 residents share 1 shower room. Dirty laundry carts and garbage cans are in the hallways of residents. Corporate has eliminated Admission Counselor, Activity Aide, Human Resource Dietary Staff forcing others to take on extra duties with no compensation. It took me 9 months to get a closet door hung in my room. There is NO HEAT in resident's bathrooms. Smoke detectors have been removed from resident's rooms. The window curtains in the Resident's rooms have not been removed and cleaned in over 8 years. There is only 1 Doctor that covers the whole facility. If you choose to take your loved one outside to see their doctor you must pay out of pocket Funding has cut sharply into Activities leaving almost nothing they can offer to residents. In the event that you must find a place for your loved one PLEASE LOOK ELSEWHERE FOR THEIR BENEFIT.

A time-tested staple in this small community!

Embassy of Tunkhannock has given wonderful care to my wife for two years. The staff are professional, caring, and effective. My wife is happy in the way she is treated.

Embassy of Tunkhannock is a dedicated and community-minded facility. Their team is actively involved in supporting local initiatives like the Walk to End Alzheimer’s, and it’s clear they care deeply about the people they serve. Great communication and a strong sense of purpose shine through in everything they do.

Very Clean and the staff truly cares for the residents

Dirty Rooms . The place needs desperate cleaning. No staff. Patients unkempt and dirty. Puddles of urine under their chairs , smell of urine and feces strong enough to gag anyone. Dose the state even inspect this place ? I gave 1 star because there wasn't an option for a negative rating

Do not come here there is a arrogant terrible nurse and his ditsiy girl who can't do their job named Josh and Colsa. I feel sorry for the resident who have to deal with these two

The only reason why I’m giving a 2 star review is because there was only 1 LPN who was absolutely wonderful towards my family member who was in their care. She went above and beyond! I also met 3 of their employees who were completing PT with my mother, and one of their house keepers who was nothing but kind. The encounters with staff were rude, defiant and insensitive towards my loved one, and their other residents and that just hits you differently when it’s someone you love deeply and wholeheartedly. Hearing clients shout in despair was and is heartbreaking.. Clients had opens wounds, as blood was smeared on their arms. Many residents spend their days self stimming by going up and down the corridors in their wheelchairs. They have lost several articles of clothing, and now they no longer answer my calls. They avoid communication to avoid taking accountability. They’ve also lost my loved ones religious necklace that was pinned to her shirt..this item is extremely important and they’ve “misplaced” it. I hope everyone finds a safe place for their loved ones and please do your research before choosing a facility. Hopefully this will help other families, aid your decision, our loved ones should be treated with respect and dignity.
