About this facility
Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital of Franklin is a Medicare-certified inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) located in Franklin, Williamson County, Tennessee. It has been Medicare-certified since January 25, 2016, and operates as a for-profit facility. An IRF provides intensive, hospital-level therapy — typically multiple hours of physical, occupational, and speech therapy daily — to help patients regain function after events such as a stroke, major surgery, or serious injury, with the goal of returning home rather than remaining in a lower-intensity setting like a skilled nursing facility.
According to CMS Care Compare, this facility's rate of discharging patients back to the community (returning home) is No Different than the National Rate. Its rate of potentially-preventable readmissions during the rehab stay, and after discharge, are both reported as No Different than the National Rate. Its healthcare-associated C. diff infection rate is reported as No Different than the National Benchmark. A catheter-associated infection measure was not specified in the available data; when a measure is not reported, CMS has not published it, often due to low case counts, which does not imply poor quality.
Overall, CMS's published comparisons show this facility performing at the national benchmark on the four measures reported, with zero measures rated better than the national rate and zero rated worse. This reflects a facility performing consistently in line with national norms rather than standing out in either direction. Data reflects CMS Care Compare's published dataset as of the listed certification and comparison figures.
