Its quality measure rating is 5 out of 5 stars, the highest tier available, reflecting performance on clinical outcome indicators tracked by CMS. The staffing rating, however, is 1 out of 5 stars, which is the lowest tier and indicates staffing levels that fall below those typical of most facilities in the national dataset. Staffing ratings account for both the hours provided by registered nurses and other nursing staff relative to resident census. As a Medicare and Medicaid certified facility, McCormick's Creek Rehabilitation and Healthcare accepts patients covered under the federal Medicare program, which typically covers short-term skilled nursing and rehabilitation stays following a qualifying hospital admission. The facility also accepts Medicaid, the joint federal and state program that covers long-term custodial care for individuals who meet financial and medical eligibility criteria in Indiana. Individuals seeking information about specific coverage terms, costs, or private pay options should contact the facility directly at (812) 829-3444. When considered against national benchmarks, the facility presents a mixed profile. Its overall 4-star rating places it above the national average of 3.0 stars. The quality measure rating of 5 stars represents strong performance on clinical indicators relative to other certified nursing facilities across the country. The health inspection rating of 4 stars also compares favorably to the national norm. The staffing rating of 1 star represents a notable contrast to these other scores and may be a relevant factor for those researching the facility.
