Skilled nursing units recognized among the Best Nursing Homes of 2026

Hebrew Rehabilitation Center’s skilled nursing units have been rated as high-performing and recognized among the Best Nursing Homes of 2026 by U.S. News & World Report.

This year, the Rehabilitative Services Units at Hebrew Rehabilitation Center in Boston and the Hebrew Rehabilitation Center at NewBridge on the Charles in Dedham, MA, were each rated as high-performing, the highest designation available.

“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. It showcases the work that we perform daily to provide the best support possible for those in our care,” said Ernest I. Mandel, MD, SM, executive vice president of health care, chief medical officer, and chief quality officer at Hebrew SeniorLife.

The U.S. News Best Nursing Homes ratings are based on the most detailed analysis of the country’s skilled nursing facilities. The ratings are based on a range of quality measures, using data from the federal government’s Care Compare program. Those measures include staffing levels, medical outcomes and resident complaints.

A facility may receive a rating of high-performing, average, or below-average.
