About this facility
Coastal Carolina Medical Center is a Medicare-certified inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) in Hardeeville, Jasper County, South Carolina. It has been Medicare-certified since April 6, 2005, and is operated as a for-profit facility. Inpatient rehabilitation facilities provide intensive, hospital-level therapy — often including physical, occupational, and speech therapy — to help patients regain strength and independence after events such as a stroke, major surgery, or serious injury, with the goal of returning home. This differs from a skilled nursing facility, which typically provides a lower intensity of daily therapy over a longer stay.
According to CMS Care Compare, the source of this profile, specific measures for this facility — including the rate of patients discharged to the community, potentially preventable readmission rates, and rates of healthcare-associated infections such as catheter-related urinary tract infections and C. diff — are not currently published for Coastal Carolina Medical Center. CMS often withholds public reporting of a measure when there are too few qualifying cases to calculate a reliable rate; this is not an indication of poor quality.
Based on the measures CMS has reported, Coastal Carolina Medical Center is not shown as better than the national benchmark on any of the 5 reported measures, nor is it shown as worse than the national benchmark on any of them, reflecting that CMS has not published comparative data for this facility at this time. Families are encouraged to consult Medicare Care Compare directly and to contact the facility for further details before making a decision.
