How long will I stay in hospital?
Patients are usually able to go home after spending 4 – 7 days in the hospital. You are ready to go home when you can safely get in and out of bed, walk up to 20 meters with your crutches or walker, go up and down stairs safely, and understand your hip precautions. Patients who still need extra care may be sent to a different hospital ward for further rehabilitation before they go home.
