    My 92 year old mother had hip surgery and after 3 days in hospital she went to a rehab center where they continued to get her out of bed and sit her up, and try and make her stand up.  Is that right to do?  Also they did not cover the procedure where they stapled her back together.  Within a week she was back in the hospital with a severe infection and another surgery.  Her incision was not covered the whole time she was in the rehab.  Shouldnt it have been covered with bandages and medication to prevent infection?  What did they do to you when they closed the incision and sent you packing out of the hospital?
