Psychiatric Quality Measures (IPFQR)
Intensive Specialty Hospital (Long-Term Acute Care) is a psychiatric facility evaluated under the CMS Inpatient Psychiatric Facility Quality Reporting (IPFQR) program. Headline measures cover restraint and seclusion use, screening for antipsychotic-related metabolic side effects, substance-use and tobacco treatment, care transitions, follow-up after discharge, and readmissions.
Physical Restraint Use 0.0 hours per 1,000 patient-hours
HBIPS-2 — hours of physical restraint use per 1,000 patient-hours. Lower is better; restraints carry physical and psychological risks.
Seclusion Use 0.0 hours per 1,000 patient-hours
HBIPS-3 — hours of seclusion per 1,000 patient-hours. Lower is better; seclusion is used only when no other intervention works.
Metabolic Screening (SMD) 100.0 %
SMD — % of patients on antipsychotics screened for metabolic side effects (BMI, blood glucose, cholesterol). Antipsychotics raise metabolic-syndrome risk; screening catches it early.
Substance-Use Treatment Provided 3.0 %
SUB-2 — % of patients with alcohol/drug use referred for treatment during admission.
Substance-Use Treatment at Discharge 66.0 %
SUB-3 — % of patients with substance-use disorder offered or referred to treatment at discharge.
Tobacco-Use Treatment at Discharge 41.0 %
TOB-3 — % of patients using tobacco who received counseling and/or medication at discharge.
Transition Record Completed 36.0 %
TR-1 — % of discharges with a completed transition record including medications, follow-up plan, and crisis instructions.
Follow-up Within 7 Days 30.1 %
FAPH-7 — % of patients with a follow-up outpatient mental-health visit within 7 days of discharge. Predicts lower readmission risk.
Follow-up Within 30 Days 42.5 %
FAPH-30 — % of patients with a follow-up outpatient mental-health visit within 30 days of discharge.
30-Day Readmission Rate 21.4 %
READM-30-IPF — risk-standardized 30-day readmission rate. No Different Than the National Rate
Influenza Immunization 89.0 %
IMM-2 — % of patients given a flu vaccine during the inpatient stay.

Long-Term Care Hospital Quality Measures (LTCH QRP)
Intensive Specialty Hospital (Long-Term Acute Care) is evaluated under the CMS Long-Term Care Hospital Quality Reporting Program. Because LTCH patients typically need extended hospitalization for complex medical issues — often ventilator weaning — the headline measures emphasize ventilator liberation, breathing-trial compliance, and discharge to community, alongside the standard post-acute infection, function, and readmission set.
Ventilator Liberation 58.0%
Percentage of ventilator-dependent patients who were weaned off the ventilator during their stay. Higher is better — this is the headline LTCH outcome since many LTCH patients arrive on prolonged mechanical ventilation.
Spontaneous Breathing Trial (Component 1) 92.0%
Percentage of ventilator-dependent patients who received a daily spontaneous breathing trial assessment. Higher is better — SBTs are evidence-based ventilator weaning protocol.
Discharge to Community 21.8%
Risk-standardized % of LTCH stays that ended at home. Higher is better.
Discharge Function Score 56.18
Risk-adjusted Section GG (self-care + mobility) score at discharge. Higher is better.
Change in Mobility 5.99
Risk-adjusted change in mobility scores during the LTCH stay. Higher is better — reflects mobility gains during rehabilitation.
Preventable Readmissions Post-Discharge (30 days) 24.15%
Risk-standardized % of LTCH stays followed by a preventable readmission to acute care within 30 days. Lower is better.
Pressure Ulcer / Skin Integrity 0.5%
% of patients with no new or worsened pressure ulcers during the stay. Higher is better.
Falls With Major Injury 0.19
Rate of patient falls resulting in major injury (per 1,000 patient days). Lower is better.
CAUTI (Urinary Tract) Infection Ratio 0.18
Standardized Infection Ratio for catheter-associated UTIs — observed ÷ predicted. SIR < 1.0 is better than expected.
CLABSI (Central-Line Bloodstream) Infection Ratio 0.23
Standardized Infection Ratio for central-line bloodstream infections. CLABSI is a major LTCH concern given high central-line use. SIR < 1.0 is better than expected.
C. diff Infection Ratio 0.09
Standardized Infection Ratio for C. difficile. SIR < 1.0 is better than expected.
Drug Regimen Review With Follow-up 60.7%
% of patients whose drug regimen was reviewed with follow-up actions taken when issues were identified. Higher is better.
Transfer of Health Info to Provider 99.3%
% of discharges with a current reconciled medication list sent to the receiving provider. Higher is better.
Medicare Spending Per Beneficiary 0.93
Ratio of this LTCH's Medicare spending per beneficiary to the national average. 1.00 = matches national. Lower = more efficient.

About this data
Quality and ratings data are sourced from the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Hospital Compare program. Star ratings are CMS's own calculation; CareRanks does not modify or re-weight them. Facility-level details (address, beds, ownership, teaching status) come from CMS provider files and the CMS Provider of Services file.
Pricing data, where shown, is drawn from the hospital's own Machine-Readable File (MRF) published under the federal Hospital Price Transparency Rule. See our methodology for the full update cadence and limitations.
