Scranton, PA

There are 98 healthcare facilities in this market — 47 nursing homes, 7 hospitals, 41 assisted living and 3 behavioral health. Here is what their own federal filings and this week’s job postings say about staffing demand, free and with nothing asked.

29
short of staff

nursing homes staffing below what their own resident mix calls for, from the payroll they file with Medicare.

30
already buy agency

nursing homes whose own payroll filing reports contract nursing hours last quarter. They are buying from somebody.

40
advertising now

facilities with at least one job advertised in this market this week.

8,281
beds

licensed beds across the market - the size of the ground your caregivers would cover.

Shortfall and agency purchasing come from CMS Payroll-Based Journal filings (2026Q1), which nursing homes file quarterly — they describe the most recent quarter reported, not today. Job postings are a separate source, read every week. Hospitals and assisted living are counted in the facility total; the two nursing-home measures are not claimed for them, because the federal filing that produces them exists for nursing homes only.

Would you rather just be shown? Ask for this market’s report — the real one out of demandPILOT, read through and marked up, so you can see what it is telling you before you decide anything. No charge and no call booked.

Town counts cover every kind of facility. The two staffing figures above are market-wide and come from nursing-home payroll filings — they are deliberately not broken out by town, because in most towns here that would name a building, and naming a real facility as short of staff on a public page is something this site does not do.
