All 3 Medicare-certified nursing homes in Hazleton,
side by side on the things that separate them: how many nursing hours each resident gets, how much of the
staff leaves each year, and what inspectors found on their last visit.
The Manor at St Luke Village runs 104 certified beds in Luzerne County under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.60 hours per resident day, about 7% under the national average of 3.86, with weekends roughly 9% thinner than weekdays. That matters because its health inspection record shows 33 deficiencies, including one abuse-related citation, though none rose to the harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent inspection was January 8, 2026. Quality measures score well and staffing is middling, but the inspection history and below-average hours tell you to ask direct questions about weekend coverage and how the abuse citation was resolved before you decide.
The Pavilion at St Luke Village is a for-profit LLC home in Hazleton with 120 certified beds, and its nursing hours come in around 3.44 per resident day, roughly 11% under the national average, with weekends running about 13% lighter than weekdays. Turnover sits at 47.1%, just above the national figure. What stands out most is the record: 42 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus three fines totaling $90,662. The health inspection rating is 2 out of 5, though quality measures score 4 and staffing 3. A recent inspection date doesn't offset a pattern with this many citations, especially the serious ones.
The numbers at Mountain City start with the nursing hours: 3.35 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends run about a tenth thinner than weekdays, so coverage is weakest exactly when families tend to visit. Fifty-one deficiencies sit on the current record, five of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, six tied to abuse, plus a $171,403 fine. Turnover at 36.2% is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, which tells you the problem here isn't retention so much as how few hours each resident gets. State inspectors were last in on February 7, 2025.
