About this facility
Macneal Hospital is a Medicare-certified inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) located in Berwyn, Illinois, certified since October 1, 2015. It is operated under for-profit ownership and is part of Cook County's healthcare landscape.
An inpatient rehabilitation facility provides intensive, hospital-level therapy — typically physical, occupational, and speech therapy — to help patients regain function after events such as a stroke, major surgery, or serious injury. Unlike a nursing home, an IRF is designed for a shorter, more intensive course of recovery with the goal of returning patients home.
According to CMS Care Compare, Macneal Hospital's rate of discharging patients back to the community is no different than the national rate. Its readmission measures — both the rate of unplanned readmissions after discharge and during the rehab stay itself — are also no different than the national rate. Its healthcare-associated infection rate for C. diff is no different than the national benchmark. CMS did not report a measure for catheter-associated infections for this facility, which often reflects a low number of qualifying cases rather than a quality concern.
Overall, CMS rates this facility as better than the national benchmark on 0 of 5 reported measures, and worse on 0 of 5 — meaning its reported results are in line with national averages across the board. Families are encouraged to review the most current details directly on Medicare Care Compare.
