Civic Center Health and Rehabilitation, LLC is a skilled nursing facility located at 1201 22nd Street North in Birmingham, Alabama (ZIP: 35234), within Jefferson County. The facility operates 95 certified beds and is classified as a for-profit corporation. It is certified to accept both Medicare and Medicaid residents. The facility holds an overall CMS star rating of 3 out of 5, which aligns with the national average of 3.0 stars. CMS star ratings are calculated based on three component domains: health inspections, staffing levels, and quality measures. Civic Center Health and Rehabilitation received a 2-star rating in the health inspection category, which falls below the national average and reflects findings from on-site state and federal surveys conducted over a standard inspection cycle. The staffing domain earned a 4-star rating, indicating staffing levels above the national average across nursing hours per resident per day. The quality measure domain received a 5-star rating, the highest possible score, reflecting performance on clinical indicators such as rates of hospitalization, falls, pressure ulcers, and other resident outcome metrics tracked by CMS. Civic Center Health and Rehabilitation is certified to accept payment through both Medicare and Medicaid programs. Medicare typically covers short-term skilled nursing care following a qualifying hospital stay, subject to eligibility requirements and benefit period limitations. Medicaid may provide coverage for longer-term custodial care for residents who meet financial and clinical eligibility criteria established by the state of Alabama. Prospective residents and their families are advised to contact the facility directly at (205) 251-5271 to discuss current availability, private pay rates, and accepted insurance plans. When compared against national benchmarks, Civic Center Health and Rehabilitation presents a mixed profile. Its overall 3-star rating matches the national average, while its 5-star quality measure rating places it among the higher-performing facilities in that domain nationally. The 4-star staffing rating also exceeds the national average, suggesting relatively strong nurse and aide coverage relative to resident census. The 2-star health inspection rating, however, falls below the national average, which may be a relevant consideration for those evaluating the facility's regulatory compliance history. CMS updates these ratings on a periodic basis, and the most current data can be verified through the CMS Care Compare database. The facility is listed as currently active and operational.
