The 30-Day Danger Zone
The weeks after rehab are one of the highest-risk periods for falls and rehospitalization. After surgery or therapy, seniors often return home weaker, fatigued, and unsure how to move safely in familiar spaces that suddenly feel risky. The 3 most dangerous moments after rehab include:
- Transitioning in and out of bed
- Bathing and toileting
- Nighttime trips to the bathroom
