Is Aegis Health and Rehabilitation a good nursing home? Reviews, ratings and inspection record

There are no official resident reviews of nursing homes: Medicare's Care Compare publishes inspections, staffing and quality data instead. Here is what that record shows for Aegis Health and Rehabilitation as of October 2026.

CMS rates it 1 out of 5 stars overall, below the Missouri average of 2.6. Inspectors issued 66 citations in the last three years. CMS imposed 3 penalties, including $275,739 in fines, in that time. For short-term rehab patients CMS rates quality 3 out of 5; for long-term residents, 4 out of 5.

Paying for care at Aegis Health and Rehabilitation: Medicare and Medicaid

Aegis Health and Rehabilitation 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 Missouri's income and asset rules. Being certified doesn't guarantee a Medicaid bed is open, so ask whether the home accepts residents whose Medicaid application is still pending.

In 2026 Medicare covers days 1–20 in full after the Part A deductible ($1,736 per benefit period); for days 21–100 you pay $217 a day; after day 100 you pay all costs. Medicare doesn't pay for long-term custodial care. Medicare's coverage rules.

Questions to ask on a tour of Aegis Health and Rehabilitation

  1. Inspectors cited the home at the immediate-jeopardy level on December 11, 2023 under the rule on nursing and physician services. What changed afterwards, and can I see the plan of correction?
  2. CMS rates staffing 2 out of 5. How many residents does each nurse aide care for on day, evening and night shifts?
  3. Weekend staffing is 19% below the all-week average. Who is on duty on Saturday nights?
  4. Do you have a Medicaid bed open now, and will you admit someone whose Medicaid application is still pending?
  5. When is the first care-plan meeting, and can family attend?

Questions come from this home's CMS data: its inspections, staffing and ownership record.
