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.

Medicare quality rating: 3 of 5 (average)

  • Sent back to the hospital27.7%State average: 19.9%
    Worse than average
  • Needed an emergency room visit14.7%State average: 12.0%
    Worse than average
  • Newly given antipsychotic drugs1.2%State average: 2.0%
    Better than average

Physical therapist time: about 7 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 3 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.

Medicare quality rating: 3 of 5 (average)

Who pays, and how full it is

Many residents here pay privately or through insurance. In South Dakota, Medicaid pays for 54% of resident days at a typical home.

  • 21% Medicaid
  • 10% Medicare
  • 69% Private pay, insurance and other
Beds in use, on average93%South Dakota typical: 85%
Facility operating cost per resident day$481South Dakota typical: $330

Shares of resident days, from the home’s Medicare cost report for the year ending September 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.
