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.
