Title
Intermediate Care Facilities {2024}
Description
The PA Intermediate Care Facilities layer was developed to show the geospatial locations of intermediate care facilities in Pennsylvania. It can be used in various emergency and health related maps. An intermediate care facility is a location where care is provided to acute care patients who are medically stable but too unstable to be treated in alternative healthcare settings such as home, ambulatory, or traditional skilled long term care. When possible, efforts were made to confirm the rooftop location of each intermediate care facility. The accuracy of geocoding is available in Geocoding Certainty attribute field (Geocoding Certainty: Rooftop="00", Street="01", Zip Centroid="04", Not geocoded="99"). Latitude and longitude are recorded in the WGS 1984 coordinate system in decimal degrees.
