About this facility
Decatur Memorial Hospital is a Medicare-certified inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) located in Decatur, Macon County, Illinois. It has been Medicare-certified since October 1, 1989, and operates as a non-profit facility. An IRF provides intensive, hospital-level therapy — typically physical, occupational, and speech therapy — to help patients regain function and independence after a stroke, surgery, or serious injury, with the goal of returning home rather than remaining in a long-term care setting.
According to CMS Care Compare, several of the standard quality measures for this facility — including the rate at which patients are discharged to the community, potentially-preventable readmission rates during and after the stay, and healthcare-associated infection rates such as catheter-associated urinary tract infections and C. diff — are not currently published for this facility. CMS does not always report every measure for every facility, often because there were too few qualifying cases during the reporting period to calculate a reliable rate. This is not an indication of poor quality; it simply means the data is not available at this time.
Based on the measures CMS has published, this facility is rated better than the national benchmark on 0 of 5 reported measures and worse than the national benchmark on 0 of 5 reported measures. Families are encouraged to consult the CMS Care Compare website directly for the most current figures before making a decision.
