About this facility
Huntsville Memorial Hospital is a Medicare-certified inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) located in Huntsville, Walker County, Texas. It has been Medicare-certified since November 1, 2005, and is operated as a non-profit facility. An inpatient rehabilitation facility provides intensive, hospital-level therapy — typically including physical, occupational, and speech therapy — to help patients regain function after events such as a stroke, major surgery, or a serious injury, before they return home. This differs from a nursing home, which generally offers a lower, more gradual level of daily therapy over a longer period.
According to CMS Care Compare, Huntsville Memorial Hospital's rate of discharging patients back to the community is 'No Different than the National Rate.' Its readmission measures — both the rate of unplanned readmissions during the rehab stay and after discharge — are also each reported as 'No Different than the National Rate.' CMS does not report healthcare-associated infection data (catheter-associated urinary tract infection and C. diff) for this facility in the available data, which often reflects low patient case counts rather than a quality concern.
Overall, of the five measures CMS typically reports for inpatient rehabilitation facilities, none is flagged as better than the national benchmark and none is flagged as worse — the reported measures are all in line with national performance. Patients and families are encouraged to review the most current details directly on Medicare Care Compare before making a decision.
