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.
- Newly given antipsychotic drugs7.1%State average: 2.2%Worse than average
Physical therapist time: about 0 minutes per resident a day. That is less than the state average of 2 minutes. If rehab is the goal, ask how many therapy sessions a week to expect.
Long-term care

- Falls with a major injury3.4%State average: 4.1%About average
- Pressure sores (bedsores)4.7%State average: 4.5%About average
