Overview

Corry Manor has received a Trust Grade of F, indicating significant concerns about the quality of care provided-this is considered poor on the grading scale. It ranks #548 out of 653 nursing homes in Pennsylvania, placing it in the bottom half of facilities in the state, and #16 out of 18 in Erie County, meaning only one local option is better. The facility is improving slightly, with the number of reported issues decreasing from 13 in 2024 to 11 in 2025, but it still faces serious challenges. Staffing is a weakness, with a low rating of 1 out of 5 stars and less RN coverage than 95% of state facilities, which may affect the quality of care residents receive. Specific incidents include failures to ensure timely physician visits for residents, inadequate development of personalized care plans, and a lack of regular updates to care plans, which raises concerns about residents not receiving appropriate and timely medical attention.
