Nursing Facilities and Post-Acute Care Length of stay in Oregon nursing facilities is highly compressed. In 2019, the median length of stay remained at just 19 days. While some individuals have intensive care needs that necessitate longer stays, the compressed length of stay reflects a shift toward nursing facilities acting as providers of short-term post-acute rehabilitative care. This helps keep costs down for the state, as nursing facility care is much more costly than community-based options.
