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 hospital22.9%State average: 26.0%About average
- Needed an emergency room visit8.1%State average: 13.7%Better than average
- Newly given antipsychotic drugs0.0%State average: 2.2%Better than average
Physical therapist time: about 0 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 2 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.
- Falls with a major injury1.7%State average: 4.1%Better than average
- Pressure sores (bedsores)6.0%State average: 4.5%Worse than average
- Given antipsychotic drugs41.6%State average: 23.5%Worse than average
- Hospital stays per 1,000 resident days2.3State average: 2.1About average

What a stay may cost
- Short-term rehab with Medicare: after a qualifying hospital stay, Medicare pays in full for days 1–20. From day 21 to day 100 you pay $217 a day (2026), unless other coverage pays it. Medicare stops after day 100. Estimate a rehab stay →
- Paying privately: ask the home for its daily rate and what it includes. As a guide, Missouri’s Medicaid program uses about $8,235 a month as the average cost of nursing home care (April 2026); see the state’s figure.
- Medicaid: this home is certified for Medicaid, which pays for most long-term care once savings run low. Ask whether a Medicaid bed is available. Medicaid rules in Missouri →
Medicare amounts from Medicare.gov. Prices vary with room type and care needs, so always confirm with the home.
