Slate Belt Health & Rehabilitation Center Bangor, Pennsylvania 18013

A more than 90 day stay was very frustrating. A very important existing condition was somehow overlooked by a hospital or the facility which probably caused the onset of two urinary tract infections causing setbacks in recovery. Lack of sleep due to disruptive roommates also caused anxiety issues, loss of appetite and depression. Two offsite appointments were made without the resident's consent. Transport costs would have been the resident's responsibility. During the entire stay laundry was more than a bit of an issue. Whether done on site or by family, it was never easy for the resident or the laundry staff. All in all, this facility is by no means a well oiled machine. Yes, there are some very caring, well trained, dedicated people working there, but there is also the ever present wrench in the works.

No respect or dignity for resident in pain and distress from fecal impaction. Clothing were lost and nurse administered an enema improperly causing excruciating pain to a resident. No compassion for the resident or family.

Excellent

Old Orchard Health Care Center Easton, Pennsylvania 18045

I am only giving this facility 1 star. My grandmother was placed there for short-term rehabilitation. After spending 13 days in old orchard, she has now returned to the hospital and has been re-admitted for heart failure. Which she had been experiencing for 3 days prior to her being removed from that facility. She told the nurses she had trouble breathing and they told her it was just anxiety. They never checked with her primary care physician, if someone had anxiety that bad for 3 days and they had trouble breathing, anxiety or not the PCP should have been notified. Also when the family inquired about her symptoms, we were told the same thing, when someone would actually return our call. The physical therapists were great, however a few certain nurses employed there, just treated my grandmother like a number and we came very close to losing her!

The staff is very nice, but the follow up care is severely lacking in the Dementia unit . Mom's assigned Dr. did not even see her for two weeks after she arrived. Few seemed concerned that Mom was not eating, and no one drew the correlation between the time the meds were taken and the physical setbacks she suffered. No one called attention to the fact that she was falling asleep during meal times ( as a result of when she was given the prescribed pills, and being up all night because of noisy residents). She weakened, and we finally had to question the staff ourselves, withhold medication, and dictate a routine before she began to improve. I was not impressed with the level of care. I must say that the P.T. was very nice and extremely effective.

Kirkland Village Bethlehem, Pennsylvania 18017

My father has only been at Kirkland Village in the skilled care center for three days, the staff are nice but forgetful, at 8 o’clock in the evening he asked for some Tylenol PM for his pain, the staff member came back at about 9 pm and, without telling him, she gave him a sleeping pill instead, he woke up at about 2 am and pressed the call button because he was in pain but no one came to him before 4 am and then he finally got his pain medication. When we ask for a bottle of ensure, to have with his meals, it’s a crap shoot on whether they remember to bring it or not. I’m not very impressed with this facility
