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 hospital27.1%State average: 24.3%About average
- Needed an emergency room visit11.5%State average: 13.9%About average
- Newly given antipsychotic drugs0.0%State average: 1.5%Better than average
Physical therapist time: about 11 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 5 minutes. It is not one person’s therapy schedule; if rehab is the goal, ask how many therapy sessions a week to expect.

Who pays, and how full it is
