In the fourth quarter of 2023, Regalcare at Harwich stood out as the second largest nursing home in Barnstable County, tied with one other nursing home, according to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). It shared its ranking with Pleasant Bay of Brewster Rehabilitation Center.

Data shows that the nursing center had a total of 135 beds available, 24 more than the average in Barnstable County as of the fourth quarter of 2023. They aided an average of 98.4 residents during that period.

Regalcare at Harwich had an overall rating of 2 from the CMS, which lags behind the average of 2.9 recorded for nursing homes in Massachusetts.

During the quarter, Bourne Manor Extended Care Facility stood out as the largest nursing home in Barnstable County, with 142 beds available.

As of the fourth quarter of 2023, Regalcare at Harwich has spent a total of $40,332 in six fines and suffered six penalties.

In total, there were 13 for-profit nursing homes in Barnstable County, Massachusetts.

According to US Census data, in 2020, nearly 1 in 6 Americans were aged 65 years or older. Since 1920, the older population skyrocketed from 4.9 million to 55.8 million, reflecting a growth rate of roughly 1,000%, five times higher than the average growth for the overall U.S. population.

A 2021 study suggests that nearly half of this age group, roughly 28 million individuals, may require long-term services and support. Additionally, the study projects that over a third of them may eventually need nursing home care.

“Living a long life is something that many of us want and could get,” said Jesse Slome, executive director of the American Association for Long-Term Care Insurance, an insurance education group. “But when we live a long life, the chances of us needing long-term care increase exponentially. But when you need that type of care, there are limited options.”
