Paul's story: returning to an active lifestyle

11/04/20

One evening, Paul experienced weakness in his right leg that caused him to fall. He went to bed to “sleep it off,” but when he woke up, he could not move his right side. He was also experiencing a facial droop and dizziness.

Hospital Happenings

Mr. Bonacorsi underwent an elective left total hip replacement after years of hip discomfort and planned to discharge directly home with home health services. He was confident that after surgery, he would be back to driving, caring for his granddaughter and living the independent life that he did before. To help him do so, Mr. Bonacorsi was admitted to Encompass Health Hospital of San Antonio for a short stay where he was able to practice daily tasks of living. He is already back to his active lifestyle in the community and attributes his successful recovery to his therapy at Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital of San Antonio.

After a fall led to a below the knee amputation, Ms. Estrada came to Encompass Health twice for rehabilitation and prosthetic training. Her biggest goal was to return home to her spouse and two dogs and be able to walk safety using her prosthetic. She enjoyed her time with our therapy dog Bishop, sponsored by PAWS. Congratulations on your discharge and we wish you luck on your continued recovery!
