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 hospital5.1%State average: 22.5%Better than average
- Needed an emergency room visit4.6%State average: 9.5%Better than average
- Newly given antipsychotic drugs2.6%State average: 1.4%Worse than average
Physical therapist time: about 0 minutes per resident a day. That is less than the state average of 6 minutes. 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 injury3.2%State average: 3.1%About average
- Pressure sores (bedsores)1.2%State average: 4.8%Better than average

Who pays, and how full it is
