Our read on Embassy Of Tunkhannock
Embassy Of Tunkhannock carries a federal Special Focus Facility designation, which CMS reserves for homes with a persistent record of poor care, and the numbers behind that status are hard to argue with. Fifty-seven deficiencies sit on the current record, five of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy to residents, and five tied to abuse. Nurse staffing runs about 20% below the national average, weekends dip below weekdays, and over half the nursing staff turned over in a year. A for-profit LLC operates the 124-bed building, and CMS has logged two fines totaling $103,502. The most recent inspection was January 30, 2026.
