But if you say you have no one to help you out (since you live alone, I assume), then the hospital will probably try to be accommodating by getting you a nurse or caregiver.

I have zero $ for a home care person, unfortunately. I'm in the middle of an SSDI application, but it's sooo slow.
I don't want to go to physical rehab because of my cats.
I didn't know the hospital would do anything to help me. Thanks, blue...I will definitely inquire! 
Fortunately, my apartment is tiny so it's not like I have a large space to navigate. I do live upstairs, though.
