Your treatment plan will be individualized to address your condition and specific rehabilitation needs, based on medical certification by your doctor. After admission, the therapy team will meet to review your treatment plan and recommend a schedule of appropriate services. It would not be unusual for a healthy postoperative 64-year-old woman (for example, after a hip replacement) to have an hour of physical and occupational therapy every day, 6 times per week, for 3 weeks. On the other hand, a frail 88-year-old man recovering from the same surgery, with complications, might recover much more slowly, and a schedule of 20 minutes per day, alternating days if he gets too tired, may be more appropriate. We’ll work quite closely with the most important person on the team: you.
