When you're discharged but not yet ready to go home, Oak Knoll's short-term rehabilitation bridges the gap with skilled nursing and intensive therapy.
Medicare Part A covers up to 100 days in a skilled nursing facility per benefit period, with full coverage for days 1–20 and a daily copay for days 21–100, provided skilled care is medically necessary. According to CMS data, the average short-term rehab stay is approximately 25 days.
Oak Knoll provides physical therapy (PT), occupational therapy (OT), and speech-language pathology (SLP) in a state-of-the-art therapy gym. Therapy is provided 5–7 days per week depending on medical necessity and your recovery plan.
Oak Knoll can often arrange same-day or next-day admissions for post-hospital patients. Our admissions team coordinates directly with hospital discharge planners to ensure a seamless transition. Call (314) 521-7419 to start the process.
According to CMS data, approximately 78% of short-term rehab patients at 4- and 5-star rated skilled nursing facilities return home within 30 days. Oak Knoll's goal-driven rehabilitation program focuses on functional independence and safe home discharge from day one.
