Extension of days at the rehab

I'm a patient at the rehabilitation clinic,Life New Kensington Clinic, for a total hip replacement operation done no the 27th of February. The medical aid gave me only 5 days to be able to recover from the rehabilitation of whuch it not enough, out of the 5 days i only saw the the****** 3 times. May reasons to be in rehab is that, i don't have any one to help me at home with all my needs, i can't even use the stairs to get into my house, i can't use a shower it is not safe for me at this moment, i can't do my bed, i can't prepare food.

They know my history i did a knee replacement and i have a spain problem. I'm honestly not ready to be discharged, i still need at least a week or so for therapy before going home. Previous i had an assisted from my mother, she past away. I don't have anyone to help me. I'm a widow, staying with my kids alone.

They want me to be discharged today, if i stay for more days ill have to pay the facility myself and don't have that money. I have been with the medical scheme for almost 10 years now. This is my first time at the rehab. My reasons to have medical aid was for things like this.

Your assistance will be highly appreciated.
