Is Evervella of Swansea a good nursing home? Reviews, ratings and inspection record

CMS rates it 2 out of 5 stars overall, below the Illinois average of 2.6. Inspectors issued 33 citations in the last three years. CMS imposed 14 penalties, including $110,151 in fines, in that time. For short-term rehab patients CMS rates quality 1 out of 5; for long-term residents, 3 out of 5. Those results differ a lot, so ask about the unit your family member would be on.

Paying for care at Evervella of Swansea: Medicare and Medicaid

Evervella of Swansea is certified for both Medicare and Medicaid. Medicare Part A can cover a short skilled-nursing or rehab stay here after a qualifying hospital stay of at least three inpatient days (observation days don't count), for up to 100 days per benefit period. Medicaid can pay for long-term care for residents who meet Illinois's income and asset rules.
