Admissions

Thank you for your interest in the Van Rensselaer Manor Skilled Nursing & Rehabilitation Facility.

On this page (attached) you will find the application for admission to Van Rensselaer Manor.  After you submit the completed application with all the required information (please see page 2), the Admissions team will review it and determine if the applicant is appropriate for the facility. 

If the applicant is appropriate, admissions staff will notify the applicant (or designated representative) when beds become available. Important points to remember:

  • Van Rensselaer Manor is the Rensselaer County Nursing and Rehab facility, which means preference is given to Rensselaer County residents.  
  • The facility is NOT a participating provider with all insurance plans, such as: MVP, GHI, Wellcare.  Please determine what providers participate with your insurance plan prior to applying.  This could include Medicare plans, Medicaid plans or private HMO plans. 
  • If you are interested in exploring county benefits to assist with long term (chronic) care services, please contact the Medicaid office in the county the applicant resides in for information and assistance.
