Patient was recently admitted to our facility from November 14 through 15th, with COVID and generalized weakness.  He improved significantly and was discharged home with family assistance.  He represented on the 17th again with significant generalized weakness.  Additionally in the emergency department he was found to have an acute kidney injury, he was also noted to be hypoxic.  Chest x-ray did not demonstrate any acute process.  Urinalysis demonstrated a possible urinary tract infection, so we started antibiotics and a urine culture was sent off.  Repeat labs following morning demonstrate his acute kidney injury was very mildly worse.  He had a renal ultrasound which I demonstrate any obstruction.  Did note that he was having some mild urinary retention.  He worked with physical therapy and occupational therapy, they felt he was safe for home discharge with family assistance but recommended home physical therapy.  The patient was also given some fluids for his acute kidney injury.  Today the patient states he is feeling significantly better.  States he is not short of breath when he is ambulating.  His kidney function has improved back to baseline.  His son at bedside did state he was mildly hesitant to take him home as this is the 2nd admission this week.  I discussed with him how we do feel it is safe for him to go home, but did recommend the patient continue ambulating and moving around.  His son is concerned as his wife just turned up positive for COVID as well, and he is worried about his ability to care for him if he gets COVID himself.  The patient himself did state he would prefer to be at home.  I did encourage him to continue to up in movement increases activity.  Patient's urine culture did not demonstrate any acute bacteria, it does demonstrate resident flora.  Antibiotics were discontinued.   Electrolytes were monitored and repleted PRN throughout the admission. Patient clinically improved and hemodynamically stable for discharge.  Discussed plan of care discharge with patient including outpatient follow-up PCP within 7 days. Patient voiced understanding was agreeable with plan of care discharge.
