Just got off the phone with the case manager at Mount Vernon. She wants to set up a meeting for family members to meet with physical therapy, speech therapy, occupational therapy and the doctors so we can all sit in the same room and assess and discuss Ken's progress. I like this idea. She says we will discuss things like how he is doing in each of the therapies, when his projected discharge date is, what type of home care he will require and things like that.
I asked her, "I know it's early, but what do you forsee his discharge date to possibly be?"
She said right now they are thinking 4 weeks.
Ouch! I wasn't ready to hear that. I was initally told 12 to 18 days.
This meeting has been scheduled for November 10th at 2pm, and I'm really looking forward to that. I think the 4 weeks thing is just an initial estimate, but we'll see.
