Is Valley View Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center a good nursing home? Reviews, ratings and inspection record

CMS rates it 1 out of 5 stars overall, below the New Jersey average of 3.5. Inspectors issued 28 citations in the last three years. CMS reports no fines or payment denials in that time.

Paying for care at Valley View Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center: Medicare and Medicaid

Valley View Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center 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 New Jersey'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.
