Short-term rehab or long-term care?
Medicare rates these separately, and many homes are better at one than the other.
Short-term rehab
For a stay of a few weeks after a hospital visit, such as after surgery or a stroke.
- Sent back to the hospital28.1%State average: 26.1%About average
- Needed an emergency room visit9.1%State average: 13.9%Better than average
- Newly given antipsychotic drugs0.5%State average: 2.2%Better than average
Physical therapist time: about 3 minutes per resident a day. That is about the same as the state average of 3 minutes. If rehab is the goal, ask how many therapy sessions a week to expect.
Long-term care
For residents who live at the home for months or years.
- Falls with a major injury2.8%State average: 3.1%About average
- Pressure sores (bedsores)4.9%State average: 4.8%About average

Who pays, and how full it is

- 65% Medicaid
- 12% Medicare
- 24% Private pay, insurance and other
Beds in use, on average88%Illinois typical: 73%
Cost of care per resident day$358Illinois typical: $320
Shares of resident days, from the home’s Medicare cost report for the year ending May 2025. The cost per day is what care costs the home to provide, not the price you would pay; ask the home for its private-pay rate. A busy home may have fewer open beds, so ask about availability.

Source: Medicare (CMS) monthly Care Compare releases since 2019. Medicare has changed how some ratings are calculated over the years and paused most inspections in 2020, so some jumps reflect rule changes rather than changes at the home. Our methodology
