About this facility
Sid Peterson Memorial Hospital is a Medicare-certified inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) in Kerrville, Texas, certified since July 1, 2002 and operated as a non-profit organization. An IRF provides intensive, hospital-level therapy — typically physical, occupational, and speech therapy — to help patients regain function and independence after a stroke, major surgery, or serious injury, with the goal of returning home rather than remaining in a long-term care setting.
According to CMS Care Compare data, patients discharged from Sid Peterson Memorial Hospital return to the community (go home) at a rate that CMS describes as 'no different than the national rate.' The facility's readmission measures — both readmissions during the rehab stay and after discharge — are also reported as 'no different than the national rate.' For healthcare-associated infections, the facility's C. diff infection rate is reported as 'no different than the national benchmark.' A catheter-associated urinary tract infection measure was not addressed in the data provided.
Taken together, CMS rates this facility better than the national benchmark on 0 of the reported measures and worse than the national benchmark on 0 of the reported measures — meaning its reported performance is consistent with typical national results across the measures available. Any measures not mentioned here have not been published by CMS, which can occur when case volumes are too low to report reliably; this does not indicate poor quality. Data reflects CMS Care Compare records as most recently available.
