Its rate of potentially preventable readmissions, both after discharge and during the rehab stay, is also 'No Different than the National Rate.' Healthcare-associated infection measures (catheter-associated urinary tract infection and C. diff) were not reported for this facility, which CMS notes often occurs due to low case counts rather than indicating a quality concern.
