EASTCHESTER REHABILITATION AND HEALTH CARE CENTER

Eastchester Rehabilitation and Health Care Center is a skilled nursing facility located at 2700 Eastchester Road in the Bronx, New York (10469). The facility operates as a for-profit limited liability company and is certified for both Medicare and Medicaid. It has a total of 200 certified beds and can be reached by phone at (718) 231-5550. The facility holds an overall CMS star rating of 5 out of 5, which places it above the national average of 3.0 stars. CMS assigns these ratings based on three component areas: health inspections, staffing levels, and quality measures. Eastchester Rehabilitation and Health Care Center received a 5-star rating in health inspections, indicating a lower frequency and severity of cited deficiencies relative to national norms. Its quality measure rating is also 5 stars, reflecting favorable performance across clinical outcome metrics tracked by CMS. However, the facility received a staffing rating of 1 star, indicating that reported staffing levels fall below national averages. This component measures the amount of time registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nursing assistants spend with residents on a daily basis, adjusted for patient acuity. The facility is certified to accept both Medicare and Medicaid as payment sources. Medicare typically covers short-term skilled nursing care following a qualifying hospital stay, subject to eligibility and duration requirements. Medicaid may cover longer-term custodial care for individuals who meet financial and medical eligibility criteria. Prospective residents and their representatives are advised to contact the facility directly to confirm current payment options, availability, and any applicable out-of-pocket costs. When considered alongside national benchmarks, Eastchester Rehabilitation and Health Care Center presents a mixed profile. Its overall 5-star rating exceeds the national average of 3.0 stars, largely driven by strong performance in health inspections and quality measures, both of which received the highest possible rating. The 1-star staffing rating, however, represents a notable area where the facility falls short of national norms. Families and care coordinators reviewing this facility as part of a placement decision may wish to weigh these individual component ratings in the context of their specific priorities and the needs of the prospective resident.
