Skilled Nursing Facilities
Expert care for complex
medical needs.
Skilled nursing facilities provide 24-hour medical care, rehabilitation, and long-term support for seniors with complex health needs — including post-hospital recovery.
What Is Skilled Nursing?
The highest level of care outside a hospital.
Skilled nursing facilities are appropriate for seniors recovering from surgery, stroke, or serious illness, as well as those needing long-term medical support.
Short-Term Rehabilitation
Post-hospital recovery following surgery, stroke, or fractures. Physical, occupational, and speech therapy provided daily.
Long-Term Care
Permanent residence for seniors requiring ongoing medical supervision that cannot be safely provided in an assisted living setting.
Medical Management
24-hour nursing care, physician oversight, IV therapy, wound care, and complex medication administration.
Memory & Behavioral Care
Specialized units for residents with advanced dementia or behavioral conditions requiring a secured environment.
Medicare Coverage
Medicare Part A may cover short-term skilled nursing or rehabilitation care after a qualifying hospital stay. Coverage is typically available for up to 100 days, depending on medical eligibility and ongoing care needs.
Medicaid Coverage
Medicaid may help cover long-term nursing home care and certain home- and community-based services for individuals who meet financial and medical eligibility requirements.
