My teenage DS (almost 16 yrs old) has been referred to the RNOHP for intensive physio as an in patient possibly for 3 weeks or so -severe damage to shoulder muscles sustained as a result of a dislocated shoulder (Mnetters with rugby playing sons look away now!). This is not a life endangering condition, but it is a life changing condition for my previously passionately rugby playing very sporty and active DS and we are both feeling the strain.
Any MNetters out there with experience of in patient care at the RNOHS?
I (and DS) are a bit worried as this is his GCSE year - what is the in patient schooling like and what else is there for a 16 yro to do for a few wks of in patient care?
I've no experience of anything quite like this, none of my family or DC have ever required hospital treatment so I am feeling somewhat inadequate and ill prepared and quite worried.
