Short-term rehab or long-term care?
Medicare rates these separately, and many homes are better at one than the other.

- Sent back to the hospital15.8%State average: 23.5%Better than average
- Needed an emergency room visit14.0%State average: 14.8%About average
- Newly given antipsychotic drugs0.5%State average: 1.9%Better than average
