    Actually, Nurse I'm not at all interested to be discharged so soon.

    Oh, I can understand your concern. Margaret. But still doctor has seen you and you have made a great recovery. Your condition is progress. Day by day it is improving so Dr. has decided to discharge tomorrow. So tell me why you're not ready to go home and who is there to take care of your home?

    can understand your concern? Don't worry, Margaret. You're in the right place and with better hands, can you know exactly like why you're not ready to go home? Is there any other problem with you?

    Yes, nurse. I see. I just came three days ago, and I had replacement surgery. And yeah. Though discharge is sheduled for today, I'm worried that the medical team expect me to go home and I don't feel very safe and I'm frightened that I may fall again.

    Oh, I can understand your feelings. But still, in order to get a clearer picture of present condition. Can I ask you some questions?

    Yes nurse.

    So tell me Margaret who is there at home to take care of you.

    I just I'm alone now. And I don't have anybody sometimes my daughter comes and stays with me but she will not always be with me because she's working

    P O ke Margarita, it seems that you're an editor position, I can understand your feelings, but still because staying here in the hospital because there are a lot of patients they will come with different diseases. So staying here is not beneficial because there are chances you may get infection. So right now you are under recovery, your immunity power is low. So there are chances that you may get infection. So because of that Doctor has advised you, you can go home and take rest, so don't worry as So, if you're really like in need of a physiotherapist, we have physiotherapist here in the hospital so physiotherapist will provide appropriate education to you regarding the mobility. So So tell me like how are you feeling? Were you able to

    manage to shower independently today but I felt exhausted afterwards because I'm afraid of walking around independently and especially are falling over in the shower. And I'm a little upset regarding that.

    Yes, I can understand Margaret because as Jerry is conducted three days ago because like you will have slight pain and your daily activities will be disturbed slightly but still telling you no need to worry your physiotherapist is available in the hospital it's your therapist is the appropriate person to teach you regarding some exercises like flexion extension and apart from that he will assist you in like a daily activities regarding mobility. So am I making myself clear to you? Yes, Nurse of course and tell me about your medications. So are you taking medications and right time?

    Yes, nurse I want to also uh, yeah, of course, I'm taking the right time, but when the How will I receive my medication or pain relief? Tell me please,

    he is migrator pharmacist will develop deliver the medications as per your discharge, but still we have the discharge summary will be given to you while you're getting discharged from the hospital. In the discharge summary, it is mentioned details regarding the medication dosage and the frequency like at what time you have to take and how much you have to take it will be mentioned clearly. So before getting this charge, I will tell you I'll explain you in detail like what to take and when to take and how many days you have to take. So are you clear with this Margaret?

    Yes nurse,

    so no need to worry. And while On the recovery parade, if you observe any complications such as excessive pain or bleeding from the wound, and any numbness, please seek immediate medical attention. You can come to the hospital and seek immediate medical attention and follow doctor's instructions. Is it fine, Margaret? Yes, nurse. Okay, and please take care of the wound, regular dressing is high, it would be highly beneficial. Please don't contaminate the wound, because if you contaminate the wound, there are chances of getting infection. Apart from that in case of diet. Instruct, I highly recommend you to take a high protein rich and high calcium rich diet in order to improve the nutritional status as well as for faster recovery. And if you involve in doing some sort of exercises like flexion and extension, it improves your blood circulation as well as it improves muscle tone. So are you following me, Margaret? Whatever I have advised you.

    that I bought from them. Do you have any other questions to ask me?

    Yes, no. So one particular thing what I want to ask you is this. Fine? I do not. Okay. I'm concerned about looking after the wound area on my hip.

    Oh, okay. Okay, I can understand your worries, Margaret. But still, if you're really like, if you're, if you can't look the wound or the heap, I can arrange a caterer or some homecare nurse to you so that they will take care of the wound, and they'll do appropriate dressing at the right time, and they will assist in daily activities.
