Frequently Asked Questions about Nursing Homes in Washington, DC

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in this state?

Does this state Medicaid cover nursing home care?

Yes — this state Medicaid covers nursing home care for residents who meet income, asset, and medical-need eligibility requirements. Most CMS-certified nursing homes accept Medicaid as a primary payer once long-term-care eligibility is established.

What is nursing home care?

Nursing homes (also called skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses, rehabilitation services, and long-term custodial care for residents with significant health or functional needs.

How many nursing homes are listed on this page?

This page features 11 nursing homes in Washington, DC. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right nursing home in Washington, DC?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Washington, DC, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting nursing homes in Washington, DC?
