...I went home the day after surgery in the case of both hips. When they get ya to where ya can walk with yer walker they want ya to leave. I didn't need a rehab facility. Mz ribit was there.

...she loved taking care of me.

...they will send therapy folks out to get ya thru ya exercises.

...they did the right leg first but it was the worst and it is behind the left leg in total "rehab" even though it had a six month head start. Oddly I could get my right leg up to tie my shoes better sooner than the left.

...he will need someone to help him bathe and put on and take off these stockings and strap on brace they give ya to wear when ya sleeping. A couple of things ya need.

1. Get him some bedroom slippers. He won't be able to bend to putz with the heels on bedroom shoes without pulling his hip out of the socket.

2. Get him some loafers that don't have to be tied to wear after he gets to dressing.

3. a bath chair. This is the kind I had.

I will finish this up later I gotta go get my grandaughter at school.

Ribit:

How long did you stay in the hospital after hip surgery, and did you consider a rehab facility after release? How much assistance did you require after returning home?
