Medicare rates these separately, and many homes are better at one than the other.
For a stay of a few weeks after a hospital visit, such as after surgery or a stroke.
Physical therapist time: about 9 minutes per resident a day. That is more than the state average of 7 minutes. If rehab is the goal, ask how many therapy sessions a week to expect.
For residents who live at the home for months or years.

Residents’ care here is paid by a mix of Medicaid, Medicare and private pay. In New York, Medicaid pays for 64% of resident days at a typical home.
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.
