Abstract
Federal nursing facility regulations require that necessary care and services be provided for residents to “attain or maintain” the highest practicable level of physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being (Centers for Medicare and Medicaid, 2017, Kochersberger et al., Public Health Rep 109:372–6, 1994). Both rehabilitation services and nursing care are essential to promote optimal resident function and thus both are a fundamental component in post-acute and long-term care.
