Dunmore Health Care Center sits over at 1000 Mill St, Dunmore, PA 18512, and some folks might say it's a pretty modern place for nursing care, though it's got its own ups and downs, like most places do, and right now they're not accepting new patients or holding regular office hours, so you'd want to check online if there'd ever be a change. The center runs as a skilled nursing facility and has been managed by Saber Governance, LLC since September 2019, with Lori Sakalas stepping up in May 2024, and the whole thing is owned completely by Saber Pa Holdings, LLC, which connects it to Saber Healthcare Group. With 92 certified beds and an average of 82 residents each day, the place handles both long-term and short-term care, focusing mainly on skilled nursing, rehabilitation, speech therapy, memory care, pain management, and nutrition help, and they even have services for wound treatment and stroke recovery. Staff includes everyone from physicians, nurses, therapists, and caregivers, all providing care and trying to support both the bodies and spirits of the folks who live there, and they do run plenty of activities-Catholic mass, ceramics, council meetings, store trips, and those popular ice cream outings-and Residents also get free DirecTV in their rooms.
They do try for a home-like feeling and social life, with life enrichment events and community outings, and they seem dedicated to giving care based on what each senior needs, though it's only fair to mention that they've had state inspection reports showing 42 deficiencies, including one for infection control and thirteen more involving infection and care standards, which really means they've got room to improve-especially on things like resident assessment, care planning, and keeping infections in check, though the official notes say there was no actual harm but a potential for more than minimal harm. Dunmore Health Care Center is mostly staffed by English-speaking employees and averages about 3.62 nurse hours per resident each day, which is lower than the Pennsylvania average of 3.9, and their nurse turnover rate is sitting at 55.3%, which is also higher than the state's 47%. People who want to know more can check the center's website for directions and visitation rules, but for now, the main points are that Dunmore Health Care Center handles skilled nursing and rehabilitation in a modern setting, offers activities and personal care, and gets mixed reviews with an average rating hovering around 2.9 stars out of 32 reviews, which paints a picture of a place with strengths but also some real challenges to keep in mind.
