Brookside Skilled Nursing Hospital located in San Mateo, CA, offers two types of care on its roster. These include skilled nursing and nursing home care.
Due to the availability of skilled nursing, licensed nursing personnel are present in the facility at all times, while the nursing home caters to residents requiring long-term care. It is appropriate for someone whose health requires licensed nursing available at all times.
The daily nursing time per resident is 4 hours, 33 minutes, for 96 beds. Medicare, Medicaid, and private payments are accepted. Medicare covers short-term skilled care after a hospital admission, not for long-term residency. Medicaid provides assistance for extended stays that savings cannot support, while private pay indicates that the family pays the expenses directly.
