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 hospital33.5%State average: 22.5%Worse than average
- Needed an emergency room visit14.3%State average: 9.5%Worse than average
- Newly given antipsychotic drugs1.7%State average: 1.4%Worse than average
Physical therapist time: about 12 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 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 injury9.5%State average: 3.1%Worse than average
- Pressure sores (bedsores)4.4%State average: 4.8%About average
