Cadia Rehabilitation Renaissance is a nursing home in Millsboro, Delaware, with 130 beds. It is located on John J Williams Highway, which is near many services and amenities. This newly opened facility strongly focuses on post-acute rehabilitation. The home accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, giving families multiple ways to access care after hospitalization or surgery.
The facility mainly offers rehabilitation services and full nursing care. Total nursing staffing averages nearly 4 hours per resident on a daily basis. This robust daily support is best for residents recovering from acute health events. Residents also get 24-hour staffing and structured programs in rehabilitation, nursing, dietary services, and care transitions to help prepare and move smoothly back to independent or lower-level care.
The facility’s current occupancy is 82%, with an average length of stay of around 75 days, which is enough time for residents to progress through short-term recovery.
Dishes feature fresh, seasonal ingredients in chef-inspired, nutritious entrees. These are served restaurant-style with multiple options to accommodate residents’ preferences.
Based on the inspections, staffing levels, and resident protection protocols, the facility needs to improve in these areas. Families evaluating placement should tour the facility and ask about current operational practices and staffing management.
Kentmere Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center is a 104-bed nursing home on Lovering Avenue in Wilmington, Delaware. The building usually operates at around 90 percent occupancy, with residents staying for an average of 177 days. This timeline shows that the floor team splits its time between short-term post-hospital therapy and long-term medical placement. For billing, families can coordinate payments through traditional Medicare, state Medicaid, or private accounts.
The surrounding neighborhood is highly walkable, allowing visitors to easily run errands or get around on foot. Inside the facility, residents get about 4 hours and 17 minutes of direct nursing attention every day. A full-time doctor is on staff, and a 24-hour crew of RNs, LPNs, and aides manages the care plans. Daily life includes restaurant-style dining, a therapy gym, private or semi-private rooms, and a hair salon. The activity calendar features art classes, happy hours, and scheduled transport for medical appointments and group outings.
State regulatory records show no active health or safety citations for the facility, resulting in a current inspection deficiency rate of zero. Interested individuals can call the main intake office to check on current bed availability, ask about the scheduling for therapy sessions, or book a time to come tour the building.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care in Delaware
What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Delaware?
Assisted living in Delaware supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.
Does Delaware Medicaid cover memory care?
Delaware Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, but most states (including Delaware) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.
