About this facility
Faith Regional Health Services is a Medicare-certified inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) located in Norfolk, Madison County, Nebraska. It has been Medicare-certified since January 1, 2005, and operates as a non-profit organization. An IRF provides intensive, hospital-level therapy for patients recovering from a stroke, surgery, or serious injury, with the goal of helping them regain physical function before returning home. This differs from a nursing home, which typically offers a lower intensity of daily therapy over a longer period.
According to CMS Care Compare data, Faith Regional Health Services' rate of discharging patients to the community (returning home) is worse than the national rate. Its rate of potentially preventable readmissions, both during the rehab stay and after discharge, is no different than the national rate. Healthcare-associated infection measures for catheter-associated urinary tract infections and C. difficile were not reported by CMS for this facility, which is often due to low case counts rather than an indication of quality concerns.
Overall, among the measures CMS has published, none were rated better than the national benchmark, and one measure (discharge to community) was rated worse than the national benchmark. The remaining measures, where reported, showed no difference from national rates. Prospective patients and families are encouraged to review the most current data directly on CMS Care Compare, as figures can change with each reporting period.
