Mount Vernon Nursing and Rehabilitation is certified to accept both Medicare and Medicaid as payment sources. This dual certification means the facility is an option for residents who rely on federal Medicare coverage for short-term skilled nursing care, as well as those who qualify for Medicaid for longer-term residential care. Individuals and families seeking placement should verify current bed availability and specific coverage details directly with the facility and the relevant insurance or benefits programs. Overall, this facility's CMS composite rating of 5 stars places it in a category above the national average of 3.0 stars. The elevated overall score is supported particularly by the quality measure rating of 5 stars and the health inspection rating of 4 stars. The staffing rating of 2 stars, however, is a component that falls below the national average and may be a relevant factor when comparing this facility to others in Indiana or nationally.
