About this facility
Scr Inpatient Rehab Unit is a Medicare-certified inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) located in Morehead, Kentucky, in Rowan County. It has been Medicare-certified since June 26, 2000, and is government-owned. An IRF provides intensive, hospital-level therapy — typically several hours of physical, occupational, and/or speech therapy daily — to help patients regain function after a stroke, major surgery, or serious injury, with the goal of returning home. This differs from a nursing home, which generally offers lower-intensity, longer-term custodial or rehabilitative care.
According to CMS Care Compare, this facility's rate of discharging patients 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. CMS did not report separate figures on catheter-associated urinary tract infections or C. diff infections for this facility in the current data set; when a measure is not reported, this is often due to low patient case counts and should not be interpreted as an indication of poor quality.
Overall, CMS rates this facility as performing no better and no worse than the national benchmark on the measures it has reported — 0 of 5 measures better than the national rate, and 0 of 5 worse. Families considering rehabilitation after a stroke, surgery, or serious injury may wish to review the full details and any updates on CMS Care Compare, which is the source of this information.
