Standard 4: All patients receive at least two hours of rehabilitation per week in the subsequent weeks post hip surgery, until they have reached their goals

Standard 5: All patients moving from hospital to the next  phase of rehabilitation are seen by their new rehabilitation provider within 72 hours
