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 hospital21.6%State average: 20.6%About average
- Needed an emergency room visit10.3%State average: 9.6%About average
- Newly given antipsychotic drugs2.6%State average: 1.2%Worse than average
Physical therapist time: about 20 minutes a day per resident, averaged across all residents, including long-term residents who get little or no therapy. That is more 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 injury7.5%State average: 3.1%Worse than average
- Pressure sores (bedsores)9.9%State average: 6.5%Worse than average
- Given antipsychotic drugs4.7%State average: 13.7%Better than average
- Hospital stays per 1,000 resident days1.2State average: 1.7Better than average

Who pays, and how full it is
Many residents here pay privately or through insurance. In New York, Medicaid pays for 64% of resident days at a typical home.
- 18% Medicaid
- 15% Medicare
- 67% Private pay, insurance and other
Beds in use, on average94%New York typical: 92%
Shares of resident days, from the home’s Medicare cost report for the year ending December 2024. A busy home may have fewer open beds, so ask about availability.
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 York’s Medicaid program uses about $15,024 a month as the average cost of nursing home care in this home’s region (January 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 York →
Medicare amounts from Medicare.gov. Prices vary with room type and care needs, so always confirm with the home.
