About this facility
Select Specialty Hospital Pensacola is a Medicare-certified inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) located in Pensacola, Florida, in Escambia County.

This differs from a nursing home, which typically offers lower-intensity, longer-term custodial or skilled nursing care rather than intensive daily therapy aimed at discharge to the community.
According to CMS Care Compare data, this facility's rate of discharging patients to the community is 'no different than the national rate.'

Catheter-associated infection data was not specified in the source data provided.
Overall, CMS rates this facility as performing better than the national benchmark on 0 of 5 reported measures and worse on 0 of 5 measures — meaning its reported measures fall in line with national averages.
