Questions to ask when you tour

1. 1

   Availability of the 20 beds

   With only 20 licensed Medicare beds, ask how often a bed is available and what the typical wait looks like at any given time.

2. 2

   Admission criteria for this unit

   Hospital-based skilled nursing units often serve patients transitioning directly from inpatient care — ask whether your family member's diagnosis and needs qualify for admission.

3. 3

   Length of stay and discharge planning

   Ask how long residents typically stay and what the discharge process looks like, since hospital-based units are generally structured around short-term rehabilitation rather than long-term residence.

4. 4

   Staffing and oversight structure

   Ask which clinical team oversees this unit, whether it shares staff with the main hospital, and how nursing coverage is structured across shifts.

5. 5

   Billing and coverage beyond Medicare

   This unit lists only Medicare beds — ask whether Medicaid or private-pay coverage is accepted if Medicare benefits run out before discharge.
