Short-term rehab or long-term care?
Medicare rates these separately, and many homes are better at one than the other.
Long-term care
For residents who live at the home for months or years.
- Falls with a major injury0.0%State average: 2.3%Better than average
- Pressure sores (bedsores)1.2%State average: 5.4%Better than average
- Given antipsychotic drugs4.9%State average: 12.7%Better than 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, New Jersey’s Medicaid program uses about $421 a day (about $12,797 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 New Jersey →
Medicare amounts from Medicare.gov. Prices vary with room type and care needs, so always confirm with the home.
