My MIL fell Sunday, no injuries then fell again Monday with a bad cut on her chin. Diagnosed with another UTI. What can they do at rehab?

She has about 30 stitches. The hospital also discovered she has another UTI. The hospital kept her after some prodding from her son, my husband. Well, they discharged her today to a NH for rehab. I don't know what kind of rehab that can be done for this, but she hates it there.

For every day in the hospital it takes 3 days of rehab if its just to get their strength back. If Mon doesn't like it ask if she can be discharged for PT at home. Just because they recommend rehab doesn't mean you have to do it. MIL is not a prisoner.
