He should get referred to a speech and language therapist (SALT)regarding his swallow, they will assess it and find out if he needs thicken fluids or sips of fluids or peg feed until his swallow improves (peg feed is a feed that goes in to the stomach and used if people are unable to swallow)
Ask them to make referral to SALT but they prob should already have done. He should also recieve Physio therapy for exercise and help to facilitate movement and an Occupational Therapist to help regain independence with washing and dressing and other activites, they will assist with upper and lower limb exercises through function and activites (as mentioned). This will mainly be done when transferred to the appropriate ward.
He should get assessed on MAU and may see an Physio for an initial assessment.
Hope he pulls through it and makes a good improvment.
