Overview of EverTrue Luther Crest

Supporting both skilled nursing and rehabilitation care, EverTrue Luther Crest is a nursing home in Allentown, Pennsylvania. The 71-bed facility is operated by Lutheran Senior Services East under the ownership of Lawrence Delp. Families can choose from Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay to cover care costs.

Its location on Hausman Road is in a neighborhood where some errands are within walking distance. However, most visits and outings require a car.

Residents stay an average of 82 days, including short-term post-acute rehabilitation residents and those needing longer-term nursing care. Daily nurse staffing averages 4 hours and 42 minutes per resident. Registered nurses provide 1 hour and 15 minutes of care each day, nurse aides contribute 2 hours and 33 minutes, and LPN/LVN staff provide 54 minutes. The staffing mix supports both hands-on daily care and clinical oversight.

State inspections have reviewed areas such as documentation accuracy, resident communication, and care oversight. Topics also included staffing records, pressure ulcer management, resident notifications related to transfers, and ensuring physician orders are carried out properly. These are important operational areas, and families touring EverTrue Luther Crest should ask how they are managed daily.

The facility has an occupancy rate of 35%, with 25 of its 71 beds occupied. The lower census means residents can expect more individualized attention and a quieter environment. Still, it’s worth discussing how staffing and operations are adjusted accordingly.

Staffing hours breakdown

Info Daily nursing hours per resident by staff type, reported to CMS. Higher is generally better — compare this facility to state and national averages to see where staffing stands.

Hours per resident per day — compared to Pennsylvania state averages

Staff type Hours / Day / Resident vs state avg
Registered Nurse (RN) Info RNs hold the highest nursing license and can assess residents, interpret test results, and direct care plans. More RN hours per day often signals stronger clinical oversight and faster response to health changes. 1h 15m per day ▲ 59% State avg: 47m per day · National avg: 41m per day
LPN / LVN Info Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) or Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) deliver routine hands-on care — medication administration, wound dressing, and monitoring vital signs. They work under RN supervision and make up a large share of daily bedside care. 54m per day ■ Avg State avg: 55m per day · National avg: 52m per day
Nurse Aide Info Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility. Nurse aide hours are typically the largest staffing category and directly affect residents' quality of life. 2h 33m per day ▲ 16% State avg: 2h 12m per day · National avg: 2h 21m per day
Weekend Total Nursing Info Combined nursing hours (RN + LPN + Nurse Aide) per resident per day on weekends. Staffing often drops on weekends — this figure reveals whether the facility maintains adequate coverage outside of weekday hours. 4h 20m per day ▲ 23% State avg: 3h 31m per day · National avg: 3h 26m per day
Physical Therapist Info Hours per resident per day provided by licensed Physical Therapists (PTs) or PT Assistants. PT services help residents recover mobility after injury or illness and are especially important for post-acute (short-stay) rehabilitation. 11m per day ▲ 77% State avg: 6m per day · National avg: 4m per day
Weekend RN Info Registered nurse hours specifically on weekends. Facilities sometimes reduce RN presence on Saturdays and Sundays — a low weekend RN figure compared to weekday hours can indicate reduced clinical oversight when most administrative staff are absent. 52m per day ▲ 58% State avg: 33m per day · National avg: 29m per day
