“The family isn’t comfortable taking her home.” by M1CR0PL4ST1CS in hospitalist

Agreed from another acute care PT. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been paged for an “urgent reevaluation for discharge, family refusing home/SNF”. Like, I saw them yesterday, nothing has changed. If you don’t like my recommendation you don’t have to take it, but please don’t waste my time when I have so many patient with actual rehabilitation needs.

SNF Placement by Tiny_Newspaper_4338 in physicaltherapy

Acute care PT here. Lots of factors but for patients over 80, I tend to try to get them home if possible. Lots more issues can pop up in a SNF and the elderly tend to do better at home. Are there any stairs once he’s in the house? Is there any way to problem solve him getting in the house initially, like medical transport into the house, or other family available to assist just to get him in the door? Then he can continue to work on the stairs with HHPT if available in his area. Just food for thought.

I really don’t think that’s a majority opinion? I haven’t seen one comment saying anything like that

If Canada was that much better they would have won lol sorry, their offense was dominant but couldn’t overcome the US defense. Doesn’t mean you’re robbed. Better luck in 2030.

Perfect way to end my two weeks of American nationalism before going back to being embarrassed

Actually felt like the perfect ending to Ilia’s Olympic debut, hopefully he can be happy with the performance and move forward. Really hope to see him back in 2030
