What to do?

The doctor said he wants to discharge Dad tomorrow. He doesn't want to do any operations because Dad is too frail to handle that. We agree. He also doesn't see any signs of my dad improving since he's been at the hospital this past week. So, we need to figure out if we are going to send Dad home to the care center for rehab or home to his real home and do home health care or hospice. I hate to even say that word. The facts are mom can't take care of Dad alone in his current state because he is bedridden. If we take him to the care center we wonder if it will be just as it was before--Dad not willing to do physical therapy. The doc wants an answer at 10:30 tomorrow morning. What are everyone's thoughts on this? Please share comments. Thank you.
