Let’s follow the Transitional Care rehabilitation program of one of our residents, Ruth Schmidt.
-
Ruth had an elective hip replacement after a fall at her home. Following her time at the hospital, Ruth stayed at Shawneespring for physical and occupational therapy.
-
The physical therapists worked with Ruth daily doing exercises to strengthen her leg muscles and help prepare her for once again putting weight on that leg.
-
Occupational therapists taught her ways to put on shoes and socks, cook in the kitchen while using a walker, and how to get in and out of the shower.
-
Ruth stayed at Shawneesprings for twenty days. When her family came to take her home, she’d gained the confidence to resume living on her own.
