PT for Peg?

Mom is very interested in getting physical therapy. I have left messages with her docs, nurses, and caseworkers to try to get this sorted out. The hospice nurses have informed me that this is not something done at the House. So I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to get her a UVa physical therapist to visit her every once in a while.

Mom keeps calling PT "rehab," which by definition is not palliative care, so I'm thinking there might be a semantic problem complicating the issue. But I don't see any reason why PT can't be considered palliative.

More later.
