About this facility
UF Health Rehabilitation Hospital - Jacksonville is a Medicare-certified inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) located in Jacksonville, Duval County, Florida. It has been Medicare-certified since October 29, 2024, and operates as a for-profit facility. An IRF provides intensive, hospital-level therapy — often three hours a day, several days a week — for patients recovering from a stroke, major surgery, or serious injury, with the goal of helping them regain function and return home. This differs from a nursing home, which typically offers lower-intensity, longer-term custodial care.
According to CMS Care Compare, the facility's rate of healthcare-associated Clostridioides difficile (C. diff) infection is 'no different than the national benchmark,' meaning it performs similarly to other IRFs nationally on this measure. CMS has not published data on this facility's rate of discharge to the community, potentially-preventable readmissions after discharge, readmissions during the stay, or catheter-associated urinary tract infections, which is often the case for newly certified facilities with limited case volume — this should not be interpreted as an indicator of poor quality.
Overall, of the five measures CMS typically reports for inpatient rehabilitation facilities, none are currently rated as better than the national benchmark and none as worse; the one reported measure (C. diff infection) is rated as no different than the benchmark. Families considering this facility are encouraged to contact it directly and review the latest details on CMS Care Compare.
