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.

Physical therapist time: about 23 minutes per resident a day. That is more than the state average of 5 minutes. If rehab is the goal, ask how many therapy sessions a week to expect.

Who pays, and how full it is

Many residents here pay privately or through insurance. In Oregon, Medicaid pays for 61% of resident days at a typical home.

  • 3% Medicaid
  • 14% Medicare
  • 82% Private pay, insurance and other
Beds in use, on average78%Oregon typical: 63%
Cost of care per resident day$611Oregon typical: $565

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.
