Case Scenario: The patient is a 72-year-old widowed Native American woman named Rose Smith. Mrs. Smith lives alone near Traverse City. Her son, daughter-in-law, daughter, and their children all live outside of Michigan. Her income is $15,000 per year, and her healthcare coverage is traditional Medicare (Parts A, B, and D). She does not have access to a car. Mrs. Smith is diabetic and routinely receives care at the local health clinic. For hospital care, she must travel to Traverse City. Mrs. Smith tripped in her home and broke her left hip. A surgical repair was necessary and was performed at Munson Medical Center for surgery with a 7-day inpatient stay. After Mrs. Smith's inpatient stay, she was discharged to Munson Health and Rehabilitation for a short-term rehabilitation stay of 14 days. Upon discharge from Munson, in-home physical and occupational therapy was scheduled for a period of 2 months. The discharge plan for Mrs. Smith anticipates that she will be able to be discharged from home care post-evaluation. After that date, it is anticipated that she will live independently and care for herself at home.
