You are working on an acute care floor. The Occupational and the Physical Therapists are both recommending that a patient go to acute rehabilitation. You are approached by the RN Case Manager and asked to “change the PT’s documentation from today because the patient walked too far to qualify for acute rehab.” When you protest, you are told “the provider and my manager are telling me I have to get this patient out of here today and you just ruined the discharge plan.”
