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 drugs2.7%State average: 1.0%Worse than average
Physical therapist time: about 0 minutes 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 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.
- Falls with a major injury8.2%State average: 4.4%Worse than average
- Pressure sores (bedsores)8.7%State average: 4.2%Worse than average
- Given antipsychotic drugs34.0%State average: 13.4%Worse than average
