Question 2

An 80-year-old patient fell and fractured her hip and is in the hospital. Before the fall, she lived at home with her husband and managed their activities of daily living very well.
 
  The goal is for the patient to recover from the injury and return to her home. The hospital is ready to discharge her because she has exceeded the recommended length of stay in a hospital. However, she cannot walk or care for herself yet, and she will require lengthy physical therapy and further monitoring of her medications and her physical and mental status. To which type of facility should she be transferred?
  1) Nursing home
  2) Rehabilitation center
  3) An outpatient therapy center
  4) None of these; she should receive home healthcare
