This resource focuses on understanding the differences between acute care and long-term care settings through the case study of Mrs. Gable, an 85-year-old patient recovering from a hip surgery after a fall. Students will analyze the requirements of Mrs. Gable during her recovery journey, starting from her acute care in the hospital to the potential transition to a long-term recovery center. The activities included prompt students to think critically about each care setting and the specific needs of patients like Mrs. Gable.
