As far as how long... I would assume there are a few variables such as how much he is benefiting from the continuing therapy, and when you'll be comfortable taking him home.
Day trips may well be part of the transition away from the hospital setting and into the home setting.
It sounds like Rowan has been making excellent progress over the last couple of weeks, and the transition home could be quick.
How is all of this fitting into your schedule? This must be like working 2 or 3 jobs!!! Here in the USA, our Spring term at schools is finishing up shortly. Do you have any breaks coming up soon?
Hopefully you've found a couple of good exercise bikes.
If not, perhaps look at local gym memberships.
He's in the Acute Rehab area so I think there will still be a way to go. Physically he's progressing fairly well, but otherwise he still has a little way to go.
I'm working, going to university, and spending hours at the hospital. Long, long, long exhausting days.
And nope. I don't get breaks. My course will finish in early June, but then I will have to start working more. I'm building up toward working full-time again now. And then ... I'm not sure if I'll be able to take my next course or not.
He'll have access to stationary bikes at the Rehab gym and I've set my bicycle/trainer up with Zwift this weekend.
