A memory loss diagnosis is hard on everyone. Below are videos from our previous educational events that can help those diagnosed with memory loss, and their families learn the next steps to take for the future. We hope you find these videos informative and enlightening. Please reach out to our staff members with questions about caring for loved ones with dementia.

After touring several nursing homes in the New York area where I live, I made the decision to place my mother in the Jewish Home in Scranton where I was raised. I will never forget the peanut butter and jelly sandwich on my brother's lunch and dinner tray for "later." I will never forget the white hand towels mounted on his bed for him to fold.

The staff here I find to be unprofessional since day one of walking into the facility. They are all about money. Requesting information that would not have anything to do with them, saying they need to be paid. Trying to keep me from visiting my loved one because I am not vaccinated. They also push me to vaccinate my loved one. I refuse because of her lowered immunity. Beware before selecting this facility.

I was discriminated against they calm they didn't know I was disabled that is a Lie! I told Al I was on social security that I couldn't work seven days a week I could do five he didn't want to hear it. It was a hostile work environment other employees very disrespectful making snarky comments talking about me. One constantly harassed and bullied me she told me she was gonna get me fired she would run to the boss every chance she got to complain about me. I have problems with my shoulder and back limiting me from performing my duties but I need the best I could. They have "Respect" meetings for
