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.
Medicare has not rated this part of the home’s care.

Better than average
Physical therapist time: about 2 minutes a day per resident, averaged across all residents, including long-term residents who get little or no therapy. That is less than the state average of 4 minutes. It is not one person’s therapy schedule; 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.

Who pays, and how full it is

Facility operating cost per resident day$319Indiana typical: $353
Shares of resident days, from the home’s Medicare cost report for the year ending December 2024. 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.
