About this facility
Roxborough Memorial Hospital is a Medicare-certified inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. IRFs provide intensive, hospital-level therapy — typically physical, occupational, and speech therapy — to help patients regain function after a stroke, major surgery, or serious injury, with the goal of returning home rather than remaining in long-term care. This distinguishes IRFs from skilled nursing facilities, which generally offer a lower intensity of daily therapy.
This facility has been Medicare-certified since December 19, 2002, and is operated under for-profit ownership in Philadelphia County.
According to CMS Care Compare data, Roxborough Memorial Hospital's rate of discharging patients to the community (returning home) is no different than the national rate. Its readmission rate after discharge from the IRF is also no different than the national rate, as is its readmission rate during the IRF stay. CMS has not published data for healthcare-associated infection measures (catheter-associated urinary tract infection and C. diff) for this facility, which is often the case when case counts are too low to report reliably — this should not be read as an indicator of poor quality.
Overall, CMS rates this facility as performing on par with the national benchmark, with 0 of 5 reported measures better than the national rate and 0 of 5 worse. Patients and families considering rehabilitation here should review the most current details directly through CMS Care Compare, as ratings are updated periodically.
