Frequently Asked Questions

What can I expect the first few days after discharge?

Expect a time of transition. You may feel overwhelmed the first day or two after discharge and may even feel you’ve made a mistake coming home so soon. This may occur even after discharge from a rehab or skilled nursing facility.

Be patient and give yourself some time to adjust. Many patients report that after the first day or two of practical problem solving and establishing a routine, they experience a change in their progress and notice a definite upward trend to their recuperation.
