Its healthcare-associated infection rate for C. diff is reported as 'no different than the national benchmark.'
Overall, CMS rates this facility better than the national benchmark on 0 of the reported measures, and worse than the national benchmark on 0 measures — meaning its reported performance is generally in line with national averages across the categories CMS has published. Some measures, such as catheter-associated infections, are not included in the available data; CMS does not publish figures when case counts are too low for reliable comparison, and this should not be read as an indicator of quality one way or another.
