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.

Physical therapist time: about 10 minutes per resident a day. That is more than the state average of 3 minutes. If rehab is the goal, ask how many therapy sessions a week to expect.
