In May's Narrative Matters column, Albert Siu recalls his sister's
experience in the hospital
<[link removed]>
where she was given only a few hours to choose a rehabilitation facility
after she was stabilized from hip fracture surgey.
Siu describes how his sister's hospital care initially "reflected many
of the best practices associated with what has been called the four Ms
of age-friendly health care: mentation, medications, mobility, and what
matters to the patient."
However, thirty-six hours after surgery when the hospitalist physician
determined that she was stable for discharge that day, the hospital team
pivoted to "discharge mode."
Only two hours after being provided with a list of nearby rehabilitation
facility names and addresses, Siu and family members were asked to make
their selection and told, "If we did not choose a facility, they
'would choose for us.'"
Siu examines why they were so rushed to discharge his sister from the
hospital and the role of patient advocacy-or lack thereof-in
situations like this.
