All of our partner facilities are equipped with a skilled nursing unit to allow for more focused rehabilitation.
Our goal is always to rehabilitate patients back to their independent lifestyle. Therapy Center’s current return to home rate for patients whose goal was to return home upon completion of a short-term stay is 62%.

How Do Patients Qualify for Skilled Services?
Qualified Medicare Part A patients are eligible for up to 100 days* of skilled services in a benefit period. Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNF) are currently the only treatment setting where qualified patients can receive therapy 5 days per week for up to 100 days. Intensive therapy after illness or injury often decreases recovery time and chance of re-hospitalization.
- Must have Medicare Part A benefits
- Must have a qualifying hospital stay – minimum of 3 midnights
- Must be admitted into a skilled facility within 30 days of a hospital discharge with a diagnosis that requires skilled nursing services and/or skilled rehab services
- Skilled services must be ordered by a physician
If a patient does not meet the Medicare Part A criteria, then it is possible that Medicare Part B or private insurance would cover rehabilitation services in a skilled nursing facility.
