CMS rates it 2 out of 5 stars overall, below the Pennsylvania average of 3.0. Inspectors issued 34 citations in the last three years. CMS imposed 2 penalties, including $77,800 in fines, in that time. For short-term rehab patients CMS rates quality 2 out of 5; for long-term residents, 2 out of 5.

Staffing

Nursing staff spend about 3.89 hours per resident per day at Wayne Woodlands Manor, above the Pennsylvania median of 3.64 (US median: 3.72). About 0.43 of those hours are from registered nurses. On weekends it falls to 3.56 hours, 9% below its all-week average. 60.3% of nursing staff left within a year (Pennsylvania median 44.6%). High turnover can mean residents see unfamiliar caregivers; ask how long the nurses on the unit have worked there.

Paying for care at Wayne Woodlands Manor: Medicare and Medicaid

Wayne Woodlands Manor 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 Pennsylvania'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.
