About this facility
Christus Mother Frances Hospital – Sulphur Springs is a Medicare-certified inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) located in Sulphur Springs, Hopkins County, Texas. Unlike a nursing home, an IRF provides intensive, physician-supervised therapy—typically several hours a day, several days a week—aimed at helping patients regain strength, mobility, and independence after a stroke, surgery, or serious injury, with the goal of returning home rather than remaining in long-term custodial care.
This facility is a non-profit organization and has been Medicare-certified since October 1, 2003.
According to CMS Care Compare data, the facility's rate of discharging patients back to the community is reported as no different than the national rate. Its potentially-preventable readmission rate, both following discharge and during the rehabilitation stay, is also reported as no different than the national rate. CMS does not report additional healthcare-associated infection data (such as catheter-associated infections or C. diff) for this facility in the data provided, which may be due to low case counts rather than any indication of quality concerns.
