U.S. News & World Report Gives Hebrew Rehabilitation Center Highest Rating

Rehabilitative Services Units rated 5 out of 5 with high performing short-term care

Hebrew Rehabilitation Center’s skilled nursing units are ranked as high performing and recognized as Best Nursing Homes of 2025 by U.S. News & World Report.

The Rehabilitative Services Units at Hebrew Rehabilitation Center in Boston and Hebrew Rehabilitation Center at NewBridge on the Charles in Dedham both have overall ratings of 5 out of 5 and short-term rehabilitation ratings of high performing. 

“We are pleased to receive this recognition from U.S. News & World Report for the quality efforts of the multidisciplinary teams serving our Rehabilitative Services Units.  We strive to provide outstanding care and support for older adults who work to regain function after a hospitalization so they can return to the community and live and age as well as possible,” said Ernest I. Mandel, MD, SM, executive vice president of health care, chief medical officer, and chief quality officer at Hebrew SeniorLife.

In 2025, U.S. News & World Report evaluated almost 15,000 facilities throughout the country and rated them in two different areas: short-term rehabilitation and long-term care.  To be recognized as one of the Best Nursing Homes of 2025, a home must have been “High Performing” in short-term rehabilitation, long-term care, or both. Only 19% of almost 15,000 skilled nursing facilities rated by U.S. News meet that standard.
