CMS Care Compare does not currently show reported measures for Methodist Hospital in Henderson, Kentucky, so there are no facility-specific comparisons to national rates available at this time — none of the 5 measures show as better or worse than the national benchmark. This may be due to low case counts rather than quality concerns.
CMS has not published discharge-to-community or readmission rates for Methodist Hospital, so we can't say how often patients return home based on this data. Families should contact the facility directly or check Medicare Care Compare for the latest updates.

About this facility
Methodist Hospital in Henderson, Kentucky is a Medicare-certified inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF), certified since 07/01/2000 and operated as a non-profit organization. An IRF provides intensive, hospital-level inpatient therapy — typically several hours of physical, occupational, and/or speech therapy a day — to help patients regain function after a stroke, surgery, or serious injury, with the goal of returning home safely rather than remaining in a facility long-term.
CMS Care Compare publishes several plain-language national comparisons for inpatient rehabilitation facilities, including how often patients are discharged back to the community, rates of potentially-preventable readmissions, and rates of healthcare-associated infections such as catheter-associated urinary tract infections and C. difficile. For Methodist Hospital, these specific measures — discharge to community, readmission during or after the rehab stay, and the infection measures — are not currently reported in the data provided, which CMS notes can occur when there are too few qualifying cases to calculate a reliable rate. This does not indicate poor quality; it simply means CMS has not published a rate for this facility on those measures.
Based on the measures available, CMS does not show this facility as better than or worse than the national benchmark on any of the 5 reported quality measures, since none are currently reported here. Individuals considering rehabilitation at Methodist Hospital, or their families, may wish to confirm current measure availability directly with the facility or through CMS Care Compare.
