Allied Services

How was Allied Services founded?
Allied Services was founded in 1958 as an “alliance” in Scranton of three local nonprofit organizations which needed to pool resources together and incorporate synergies of each along with addressing community needs. Since those early days, Allied Services Integrated Health System has evolved into the largest post-acute rehabilitation and skilled nursing provider in northeastern Pennsylvania, as well as one of the top employers in the region, providing human services, home care, personal care, palliative and hospice care, physical rehabilitation, skilled nursing, home healthcare, service coordination, vocational training and employment, behavioral health services, independent living and developmental services.

How is your organization a leader in your industry?
As a leading nonprofit healthcare and human services provider, our primary goal is to reinvest in our people, our facilities and our services to provide the highest level of mission-driven care with every service we provide in the community.

What’s something the general public might not know about Allied Services?
What may be a surprise to many, despite our 55 visible locations where our employees provide compassionate care and critical services, our greatest number of employees deliver care in the homes of hundreds of vulnerable people including seniors, Veterans, those with disabilities and many others who require personal care at home, palliative care, home health and hospice care. We have many rewarding employment opportunities in homes from entry level In-Home direct care workers (no training or advanced education required) to nurse practitioners (highly educated and advanced training) delivering palliative care.
