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.
- Newly given antipsychotic drugs0.0%State average: 1.4%Better than average
Physical therapist time: about 1 minute 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 6 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 injury0.0%State average: 3.1%Better than average
- Pressure sores (bedsores)4.6%State average: 4.8%About average
- Given antipsychotic drugs23.0%State average: 17.7%Worse than average
- Hospital stays per 1,000 resident days3.0State average: 1.6Worse than average
Source: Medicare (CMS) quality measures, compared with the Pennsylvania average. Lower is better for every rate shown.
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, Pennsylvania’s Medicaid program uses about $421 a day (about $12,813 a month) as the average cost of nursing home care (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 Pennsylvania →
Medicare amounts from Medicare.gov. Prices vary with room type and care needs, so always confirm with the home.
