EBENSBURG, Pa. -- Cambria County commissioners announced today the Laurel Crest nursing home will no longer take new admissions.

The move is effective immediately and will remain in place until the administrative team and the county commissioners are certain adequate staffing is in place to comply with state and federal regulations. It is important to note if your loved one is a current resident who has to be hospitalized, they will be re-admitted to Laurel Crest. New admissions are on hold indefinitely.
