Nursing Homes in the Austin area

A skilled nursing facility provides 24-hour licensed nursing. Two different populations live under the same roof: short-term rehab patients recovering after a hospital stay, and long-term residents whose medical needs exceed what assisted living can support.

Three things worth knowing first

• Medicare may cover a short rehab stay after a qualifying hospital admission, but it does not pay for long-term custodial nursing care.
• Nursing facilities are the one senior care category with federal star ratings. Check both CMS Care Compare and the Texas HHSC inspection history — they surface different things.
• The published Texas semi-private median reads unusually low because the market is heavily Medicaid-weighted. Expect a private-pay Austin quote to run well above it.
