Recovering From Surgery in a Rehab Setting

Skilled Nursing care, also known as Post-Acute Rehabilitation, is for those who need short-term care following an injury, surgery, or illness. The goal with this level of care is to successfully transfer patients from hospital to home, or senior living community, by providing the tools and resources for each phase of recovery. A stay at a skilled nursing, rehabilitation, and post-acute care center is meant to be a transitional period to help patients recover and return to their everyday lives.

Our Co-Host Ron had shoulder surgery recently and needed this type of care until he could regain use of his "good-arm". As you probably know from an episode we did (again with Ron as the guest) very early in our podcasting to discuss his life with a disability. You see, Ron was hit be a motor vehicle as a child and lost the use of one of his arms.

You can understand how rehabbing after shoulder surgery would be impossible without help! He is here to explain that process, and I'd like to report he is now back to his version of 100%! He is even going to the Vegas-Shoot in a couple of weeks to compete once again in target archery.
