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 hospital31.2%State average: 20.6%Worse than average
- Needed an emergency room visit7.1%State average: 9.6%Better than average
- Newly given antipsychotic drugs1.5%State average: 1.2%Worse than average
Physical therapist time: about 5 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 7 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 injury2.0%State average: 3.1%Better than average
- Pressure sores (bedsores)8.9%State average: 6.5%Worse than average
