About this facility
Rehabilitation Hospital Of Amarillo is a Medicare-certified inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) located in Amarillo, Texas, in Potter County. It is a for-profit facility, certified by Medicare as of 12/05/2025.
An inpatient rehabilitation facility provides intensive, hospital-level therapy—often including physical, occupational, and speech therapy—to help patients regain function after a stroke, surgery, or serious injury, with the goal of returning home. This differs from a nursing home, which typically offers a lower level of daily therapy and is often used for longer-term custodial care rather than intensive recovery-focused rehabilitation.
According to CMS Care Compare, several of the standard plain-language quality measures for this facility—including the rate at which patients are discharged to the community, potentially-preventable readmission rates during and after the rehabilitation stay, and healthcare-associated infection rates for catheter-associated urinary tract infections and C. diff—are not currently published for this facility. CMS often withholds a measure when there are too few qualifying cases to report a reliable statistic; this does not indicate poor quality.
Based on the measures CMS has published, this facility is rated better than the national benchmark on 0 of 5 reported measures and worse than the national benchmark on 0 of 5 reported measures, meaning no comparative rating is currently available in the published dataset. Families are encouraged to consult CMS Care Compare directly for the most current data and to contact the facility with specific questions.
