Good suggestion. I have a friend who stayed for a month in an in-patient rehab and was very pleased. She had no help at home. But I would suggest you do your homework on in-patient rehab facilities. They are not all created equal. In the Dallas area, there are mostly rehab facilities for substance abuse. Others had low ratings. My Dr. does not recommend an in-patient rehab facility. Instead, he kept me in the hospital 4 days and 3 nights for a bilateral knee replacement. Once home I had an inpatient home therapist come in 3 times a week for 2 weeks. That was invaluable. Do the research and keep asking questions!
