Am I correct in believing that the patient has to stay nearby the hospital for 2 weeks after being discharged from the hospital? As a side note, the patient's home is 4 hours away from the hospital he would be potentially using.

@actsoflight, I would like to share some additional information about Heart Transplant from Mayo Clinic's Patient Care and Health information > tests and procedures. This is written for the patient, however, any loved one or caregiver will gain a deeper understanding of the surgery and the after procedures possibilities.
