Inpatient rehabilitation facilities provide intensive, hospital-level therapy—often including physical, occupational, and speech therapy—for patients recovering from a stroke, surgery, or serious injury. This differs from a nursing home, which typically offers a lower intensity of therapy over a longer period. The goal of an IRF stay is to help patients regain function so they can safely return to community living.

Its rate of potentially preventable readmissions, both during the rehabilitation stay and after discharge, is also no different than the national rate. CMS does not report healthcare-associated infection measures (catheter-associated infections and C. diff) for this facility, which often occurs because of low case counts rather than any indication of quality concerns.
