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.

  • Sent back to the hospital24.1%State average: 23.5%
    About average
  • Needed an emergency room visit13.2%State average: 14.8%
    About average
  • Newly given antipsychotic drugs4.1%State average: 1.9%
    Worse than average

Physical therapist time: about 5 minutes per resident a day. That is about the same as the state average of 4 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.

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

Who pays, and how full it is

Most residents here have their care paid by Medicaid. In Minnesota, Medicaid pays for 51% of resident days at a typical home.

  • 76% Medicaid
  • 5% Medicare
  • 19% Private pay, insurance and other
Beds in use, on average47%Minnesota typical: 84%
Cost of care per resident day$502Minnesota typical: $449

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.
