Description: Hospital stays after surgery or injury are much shorter than they used to be. Today, much of the rehabilitation for those patients who are not well enough to go home happen at short-term rehabilitation facilities. The subacute care provided at these facilities includes physical and occupational therapy, social work and nursing care. This film shows the rehabilitation of three people with different injuries and their experiences in the rehabilitation facilities, and ends with a panel discussion with three health care workers discussing the cases.
