About this facility
White Memorial Medical Center is a Medicare-certified inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) located in Los Angeles, California, in Los Angeles County. IRFs like this one provide 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 provides longer-term or lower-intensity custodial care rather than intensive daily rehabilitation.
This facility has been Medicare-certified since January 1, 1984, and is operated as a non-profit organization.
According to CMS Care Compare data, White Memorial Medical Center's rate of discharging patients to the community (returning home) is no different than the national rate. Its rate of potentially-preventable readmissions, both during the rehab stay and after discharge, is also no different than the national rate. Its rate of C. diff healthcare-associated infections is no different than the national benchmark. CMS did not report a separate figure for catheter-associated infections in the data provided.
Overall, CMS rates this facility as performing no better and no worse than the national benchmark on the measures reported — 0 measures better than the national rate and 0 measures worse. This means the facility's outcomes, as reported, fall within the expected national range rather than standing out in either direction.
